“ But people with the transition said the outgoing team’s conduct went far beyond the norm and pointed to loyalists installed by the White House as the main reason for the obstruction. Pentagon officials under President Donald Trump refused to provide information about current operations, particularly in the special operations realm, because they are “predecisional.” That means the Biden team now has limited visibility into key operational issues, including what counterterrorism missions are in the works.”
How are people interpreting that last sentence? Sounds to me like there’s a bunch of special forces not reporting to Biden, which seems super strange if true. What are other people’s thoughts on this?
So, is it normal to hide stuff like this from an incoming president?
The incoming is doing it duh
