White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows said in an internal memorandum to Trump administration appointees that they would"comply with all actions needed to ensure the smooth transfer of power." However, he forbade any communications with the Biden team"unless specifically authorized." Those who work in the Office of the President"are not permitted to speak directly with a member of the Biden transition team or the federal transition coordinator," he wrote.
