1. I thought he had already been getting them

[Nevilledog]

2. Maybe they were briefings, but not classified.

4. I know he's not President yet but even this step makes me feel better about things.

5. Biden will have that advantage over Trump as the latter famously eschews his

daily reports.

6. I wonder if it scared the pants off him. We must be in terrible

shape after 4 years of this.

[Arkansas Granny]

13. That was my first thought, as well.

7. So he should be getting intel on foreign election interference

This should be interesting.

8. And I bet he didn't call Putin or divulge secrets about Israel.

9. And now we'll only get to see wide-eyed Joe from now on.

10. No sleepy!!! 😳😲😱

[ffr]

11. No, terrified of what's really going on and the intelligence community can't stop it

These Russians, I mean, republicans need to be sent packing!

12. As I thought my emojis said.

Shock no awe.

14. Could These Classified Intelligence Briefings Be Compromised By Trump Politics?.....

We are talking about Trump's Administration here. He has compromised so many agencies in the government (for example: CDC; FDA; USPS; etc) could Biden really believe what he is being told in these 'classified intelligence briefings'?

What if Biden is being given 'fake or doctored' info? Could there be a problem here or at least a problem in the making?

I'm sorry I'm so suspicious these days but I've come to the position that I don't believe anything coming out of the Trump Administration.

What say you?

15. **SCOOP** Biden's reaction to getting his first classified intelligence briefing

"Wait...What the F**K...is someone doing something about this? Does the president know about this? OMG!!! Why isn't he doing something about this?!?!?!""

[belpejic]

16. I'm sure Trump is doing everything he can to restrict

The info Biden receives.

And I wonder if this has anything to do with Wray's public candor about the threat that Russia represents. Maybe Biden knows more about the inside story now as well...

[fleur-de-lisa]

17. I feel better already. Go Joe!

[COLGATE4]

18. Do we know if it was a real briefing, not just the

picture book one pagers that they give Dummy???

[Wellstone ruled]

19. Watch for a real stupid reaction from the Orange A-Hole.

Yes,am sure Biden and Harris were getting a limited brief until today. Lot's of crap has happened since Biden and Harris were officially nominated. Notice that Intel Briefings have resumed once the DNI and others were informed by Speaker Pelosi that they were in Violation of a 1947 law stating that intel briefs have to happen for specific Government officials as well incoming Presidential Candidates.

20. Joe should make it clear to Putin that any election interference will be met with consequences.

A public announcement would be nice.

It would show voters that Joe is a standup guy, and expose Trump as a President who dares not to criticize Putin.
