In a historic and unprecedented move, President-elect Donald J. Trump’s transition team announced Tuesday that it has reached an agreement with the outgoing Biden White House to initiate the formal transfer of power.
Unlike previous transitions, however, Trump has chosen to forgo federal funding and General Services Administration (GSA) resources, opting instead for a privately funded and self-sufficient operation that will not utilize government technology or office space.
This bold decision reflects Trump’s commitment to saving taxpayers’ money while avoiding the pitfalls of entrenched bureaucracy and potential interference from the “Deep State.”
The memorandum of understanding (MOU) signed with the Biden administration allows Trump’s team to access non-public government information, receive briefings, and deploy transition personnel to federal agencies.
Unlike previous presidential transitions, Trump’s team will not sign the second agreement with the General Services Administration (GSA) to provide office space, technology, or federal funding, according to NPR.
This decision allows Trump’s transition team to sidestep traditional government processes, which have been weaponized by entrenched bureaucrats in the past.
Susie Wiles, Trump’s incoming Chief of Staff, emphasized the significance of this move.
“After completing the selection process of his incoming Cabinet, President-elect Trump is entering the next phase of his administration’s transition by executing a Memorandum of Understanding with President Joe Biden’s White House,” Wiles said in a statement.
