Trump team lands at Energy Department
President-elect Donald Trump’s transition team has landed at the Energy Department’s headquarters. Members of the Trump transition arrived at the Energy Department on Tuesday to meet for the first time with department leaders, a DOE spokesperson said Wednesday. “Department officials showed them to dedicated office space in the building that had been set aside for them as they conduct ongoing internal briefings over the next few weeks,” the spokesperson said. The transition meetings come as the Trump team prepares to take over the executive branch in January. Trump’s transition team formally signed off on a memorandum of understanding with the Biden administration in late November — after such transition agreements are typically done — paving the way for Trump “landing teams” to head into agencies. "As per the Transition MOU with the Biden Administration, the White House is receiving the names of those serving on landing teams. The landing team members are connecting with their counterparts at the departments and agencies,” Trump transition spokesperson Brian Hughes said in a statement.
