President-elect Donald Trump will now have access to the most authoritative and highly classified intelligence produced by the U.S. government, Fox News has learned.
Two intelligence sources confirmed that the Presidents Daily Brief, or PDB, is now available to Trump after the White House, before Tuesdays election, had directed that the winner have full access to the material, to ensure a smooth transition.
The sources told Fox News they do not anticipate the briefings will begin until next week at the earliest.
While Trump prepares to be read in on top U.S. intelligence, he and his transition team are busy assembling potential candidates for key roles in the Trump administration. He tweeted Friday that he had a busy day planned in New York and would soon be making some very important decisions on the people who will be running our government.
The PDB is like a highly classified newspaper for the president, and now the president-elect. It is significantly different than the information provided in briefings for candidates; those briefings act as primers to help bring candidates up to speed on topics like China, Iran and the Islamic State.
Candidates have been free to request additional briefs on topics of personal interest, and those supplemental briefings were made available to the other candidate.
The PDB is a focused intelligence product, and has a very high threshold for intelligence to be included.
If Trump were to receive the brief in New York City, the president-elect would need to travel to a secure federal facility, such as the FBI office.

Point taken. You are correct about the undue attention to the story. But it was not unexpected. And I don’t think it will last.
“Trump now has access to nation’s most valuable intelligence”
Finally, some security in our national secrets. Wonder what the enemies of this country are going to do now since their source of information has been cut off.
Due to 8 years of moslem infitration, to get accurate intelligence DT will need to get briefed by the chicoms afterwards.
I liked to tease the police guys because I gamed with them on off days. However, they were very eager to get out of their little box at the SCIF entrance. The only funny story I know is a group of dignitaries touring the airfield and the bus crossed the red line surrounding our plane (RC-135). Everyone got a close look at the flight line asphalt.
I once had guard duty babysitting our mobile SCIF sitting in the belly of a C-5 at Dover overnight after the engine caught on fire. I had the power now but I just wanted to sleep.
There's no reason why 100s, if not 1000s, of complicit traitors shouldn't be uprooted and punished. BHO can skate free himself if he simply steps aside and lets the cards play out.
The alternative is running the risk of himself getting caught. There are many avenues to circumvent presidential pardons, including compelling persons to testify in front of GJs without the ability to invoke the 5th (ie contempt). Trump could also pick up and bundle anyone off to the Hague or other country's - say Russia - judicial systems.
Barry, and his -0- legacy, are done, about to suffer Damnatio memoriae. His best recourse is to attempt to live out a peaceful private life.
He should assign a bunch of FBI to investigate vote fraud. A steady parade of arrests, prosecutions, and deportations ( for aliens who vote ), would do a lot to discourage fraud in the next elections.
If they can be directly tied to the crimes - and convictions - of 100s (possibly 1000s), then they too will fall into discredit and ruin.
Need not be. The Democrat party has left behind millions of working class people and our successes in the Rust Belt only just began tapping into it. In addition, improving the economy and moving millions off food stamps and welfare will have the same effect.
Of course, I totally agree on the vote fraud and immigration points you make.
A SCIF is much more secure than a typical FBI office.
Some human sources will probably need to be routed out but I am hopeful that he will put us back on a secure footing forthwith....
Ephesians 6:12
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
And a precursor to the strong delusion that is on its way.
2 Thessalonians 2:11
And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
Obama asks what mean intelligence report scratches ass.
Don’t tell me that’s the excuse she will or did use?
Obama needs to be exposed for who and what he is. The people need to know that all those who tried to get the information out there were right all along. The MSM were complicit in treason.
Why do some of us feel that Trump has had access many if not all of our so called national secrets for years?
Good Choice: “I hope KT McFarland is staying on his team.”
“Just remember his current advisor on National Security is Mike Flynn former director of DIA. Flynns former command produces a lot of what goes into that briefing [DIA is actually bigger than CIA BTW]. Flynn will know if Trump is getting the real stuff or not.”
Good point!
