GOP Sen. Lankford: Biden Should Receive Briefings

‘Once you get past the convention time, both candidates receive that because you don’t know who is going to be the president’

EXCERPT:

LANKFORD: "During the entire campaign, since this past summer, Joe Biden and President Trump, who always receives it, have received intelligence briefings every day. That's — once you get past the convention time, both candidates receive that because you don't know who is going to be the president. So that's continued out throughout the campaign. That's now stopped for Joe Biden. I think we should continue that because we still don't know who the president's going to be at this point, and so we should be in the same posture that we ran throughout the whole campaign with both of them receiving briefings as they're both trying to be able to prepare, and then allow the process to be able to go through right now.”
