President-elect Donald Trump's team puts off transition traditions, including background checks

President-elect Donald Trump is bucking some of the ethics and security protocols in the Presidential Transition Act of 1963 — opting to privately bankroll Trump's transition effort and thus far avoiding an agreement with the FBI for background checks.
The article from Newsday discusses the ongoing transition of power following the 2020 U.S. Presidential Election, focusing on former President Donald Trump's refusal to concede to President-elect Joe Biden. Despite the General Services Administration (GSA) ascertaining Biden as the apparent winner, Trump has continued to challenge the election results through legal means, alleging widespread voter fraud without substantial evidence. This has led to delays in the transition process, with Biden's team facing obstacles in accessing necessary resources and briefings. The piece highlights the unprecedented nature of this transition, noting that while Trump's actions are within his legal rights, they are creating significant hurdles for a smooth transfer of power. It also mentions reactions from both sides of the political spectrum, with Democrats urging for a swift transition and some Republicans either supporting Trump's stance or remaining silent. The article underscores the potential implications for national security and governance due to the delayed transition.
