Trump Criticizes Biden's Transition Efforts and Executive Orders Ahead of Inauguration

President-elect Trump accuses President Biden of obstructing the transition process with last-minute executive actions, including a sweeping ban on offshore drilling.

  • Donald Trump, set to be inaugurated as president on January 20, accused Joe Biden of making the transition process 'as difficult as possible.'
  • Trump criticized Biden's recent executive orders, including a ban on new offshore oil and gas drilling along most U.S. coastlines, which Biden announced two weeks before leaving office.
  • Biden’s executive actions also included measures tied to climate initiatives, which Trump labeled as part of a 'Green New Scam' and vowed to reverse once in office.
  • Despite Trump's accusations, his incoming chief of staff, Susie Wiles, praised White House Chief of Staff Jeff Zients for his professionalism and assistance during the transition.
  • The developments come exactly four years after the January 6 Capitol riot, during which Trump supporters attempted to block the certification of Biden's 2020 electoral victory.
