Transition is NOT officially a thing. Read the act. Any candidate who's potentially a winner would get access to the funds, and the funds are just to set up a transition office in preparation of a transition, should that become necessary. There have been no movements made to transition power at all.
Biden has not been declared the President elect. IF and when the cases get past the SCOTUS and the Electoral College elects him, THEN the real transition starts.
Maybe - but not like the President does. And, who cares? He doesn't have any power. And, we all know Harris has been giving him her Senate briefings.
I'm not sure what triggered this today, unless she cracked and demanded her bosses do something about the harrassment and death threats. I'd bet Biden's team has been relentlessly demanding this, to try and make it seem like Joe larping as the president elect in his basement has any meaning. This is not a huge loss for Trump, and it does nothing to legitimize Biden's status.
