President-elect Donald J. Trump’s team will have some formal briefings with outgoing staff members, but it has so far refused to allow the F.B.I. to do security clearances for transition members.
Very likely because much of their team can’t pass a background check, and they know it.
Only for the elites, though. The rank and file still very much have requirements that must be met for employment.
And when when things are codified if they refuse to enforce them they might as well not be.
