Does anyone recall that the Trump administration failed to prepare an orderly transition?

Oh, I recall that and more, but current reporting standards seem to be not mentioning that history. It might be perceived as being "partisan". The whole "continued under Biden" portion of this topic headline should be "discontinued under Biden."

Sure looks like it's still going on.

To all appearances, the original operation has ended, but there's a new budget-line for it under Biden.

If you want to be charitable, we're on hold, pending the next investigation before we can safely conclude whether this practice is still occurring.
