2020 ELECTION/BIDEN TRANSITION: “Trump has largely hunkered down inside the White House since the election, but Biden is pressing forward and stepping into the presidential spotlight, receiving a briefing on national security Tuesday and continuing to meet with his own transition advisers. He’s also named the first wave of his White House senior staff — despite the Trump administration refusing to grant him access to federal resources allocated for the transition of power.
A growing number of Republican senators are calling on the administration to start giving Biden classified intelligence briefings, a sign that support for Trump’s refusal to concede the election may be waning among his allies on Capitol Hill.”
