Biden Meeting With National Security Advisers

Ken Bredemeier

   WASHINGTON - U.S. President-elect Joe Biden is meeting Tuesday with his
   national security advisers, but not government intelligence analysts,
   as President Donald Trump continues to block the Democrat's transition
   to the presidency.

   Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris are discussing global
   issues with their diplomatic, intelligence and defense experts,
   according to Biden transition officials.

   Numerous Republican lawmakers have said in recent days that government
   intelligence officials should be briefing Biden ahead of his January 20
   inauguration, even as Trump continues to pursue his long-shot legal
   challenges to try to overturn Biden's projected election victory and
   stay in office for a second four-year term.
