Trump does not disclose who is funding his transition team - NYT.


US President Donald Trump is not providing information about the funding of his transition team. According to The New York Times, he has not yet reached an agreement with Joe Biden's administration regarding the receipt of federal funds to finance the team. Thus, Trump could receive an unlimited amount of money from undisclosed donors to cover various expenses. This opens the possibility for individuals wishing to contribute to the new administration to make donations without public disclosure of their names or potential conflicts of interest. On the other hand, foreign citizens are prohibited from donating to election campaigns. Trump's team has stated several times their intent to sign agreements with Biden's administration, but currently, there is no information on the progress of these negotiations. The White House promises to assist Trump's team during the transition period for a smooth transfer of power.
