of transition, we need to make sure that nothing is lost in the handoff. we ve encountered roadblocks from the political leadership at the department of defense and the office of management and budget. right now we just aren t getting all the information that we need or the ongoing, outgoing from the outgoing administration in key national security areas. it s nothing short in my view of irresponsibility. trump s continuing refusal to acknowledge reality and do what every president has done before him and coordinate the transfer of power is just one of the many ways he s been acting as the chaos agent in chief. just yesterday trump finally backed down and signed the very same covid relief bill he threatened to veto for days. what looks like an attempt to save face, trump said in a statement he ll send a, quote, red line version of the bill back to congress, which is not a thing. and he also said that congress will, quote, focus strongly on his baseless voter fraud claims
