The Pentagon transition was uglier than previously known, Politico reported Wednesday, revealing that the political appointees at the Department of Defense muzzled generals and kept critical information from the incoming administration's transition team.
Meetings on issues ranging from military operations in conflict zones to vaccines were canceled, delayed, or controlled in ways that made it difficult for the Biden transition team to get the information they needed, Politico reported, citing a number of Pentagon and transition officials. After his election loss, President Donald Trump fired his defense secretary and installed loyalists in top posts, an unprecedented move in an administration's final weeks.
Led by these newly installed officials, the Pentagon reportedly limited transition team visibility on activities in parts of the Middle East and Africa, special operations missions, and Operation Warp Speed, among other areas. Officials said that obstruction to the provision of vaccine information could hinder distribution operations, and at a time the virus is raging across America.
Requests for information were returned "sanitized" and scrubbed of a lot of key information, and meetings were reportedly closely monitored to prevent the disclosure of certain pieces of information by "minders" from the general counsel's office.

Wasn’t this the report even Chris Cuomo called BS
Well, yeah. Generally the military is not in the habit of sharing sensitive information with Chinese spies.
Are we now going to be subjected to four years of constant whining and crying about how Trump handled the transition. Chairman Xiden’s puppeteer should make him shut up and keeping signing dictatorial orders (DOs).
Withholding information doesn’t affect the rollout.....It would still proceed as planned.....
They have the info now.....What’s the problem? Tempest in a teapot.....
Biden’s policy: It’s all Trump’s fault. Everything is getting dramatically worse since Jan 20 2021 because ... Trump.
“Are they letting 8 yr old write these articles?”
Pretty much. They swoon like it’s a birthday cake for third graders.
Almost like the military isn’t behind Biden at all
My question is: Is Biden barred now? At this moment? 22 Jan
Well Biden’s people are in there now. They have access to everything they want.
I remember so clearly, in June or July of 2016, when Hillary‘s campaign manager Robbie Mook said on CNN “according to experts“ and “experts say“ followed by Trump is colluding with Russia. The reference to “experts” was fairly new then and the claim about Russia was so outrageous. Regardless of facts, that is all the Marxist media needed to continue talking about Trump Russia collusion
“reportedly”???
career pentagon and other staffers have claimed they slowwalked info so Trump couldn’t act. Maybe they’re doing the same to Biden.
or, maybe Trump’s leaked letter to Biden explains it:

(yes, it’s fake, or is it? bwaaahahhaha)
Or, maybe so they think?
...Because they were known agents of a hostile foreign power (communist China) perhaps?
What's stopping them?
“Business Insider”
I have a feeling nothing has changed on that front since the 20th. I think they are still banning access.
Paybacks a bitch ain’t slo joe.
