Pentagon hits Biden for lie about access: ‘DOD’s efforts already surpass those of recent admins with over three weeks to go’
December 30, 2020 | Frieda Powers
The Department of Defense fired back at Democrat Joe Biden after he whined again about “roadblocks†his transition team had encountered in getting information.
The Pentagon set the record straight in a statement this week following Biden’s complaints that members of his team “just aren’t getting all the information that we need†from the potentially outgoing Trump administration. The Democrat provided no evidence to back his claims but the Defense Department quickly gave him a reality check, noting that his team had been given more resources than they even had asked for.
“My team needs a clear picture of our force posture around the world and our operations to deter our enemies,†Biden said during a speech in Wilmington, Delaware on Monday.
“We need full visibility into the budget planning underway at the Defense Department and other agencies in order to avoid any window of confusion or catch up that our adversaries may try to exploit,†he added.
