Methinks the briefings will be pretty sanitized of anything that can't reach the ears of Putin's boy.
Well, its about time.

(8,849 posts)10. President-elect will rely on former Obama, Trump officials
The meeting is not an official U.S. government briefing because the General Services Administration has not yet made the ascertainment that Biden has won the presidential election. Without access to the agencies, Biden is relying on experts from the Obama administration as well as people who left government during the Trump years and are cooperative -- to plan for the new administration.
Former Trump White House Chief of Staff John Kelly is among those whove warned that Bidens lack of access could be a threat to national security.
