In a significant move towards a seamless change in administration, President-elect Donald Trump has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with the current White House, led by President Joe Biden, to prepare for his incoming administration. The announcement was made by incoming Chief of Staff, Susie Wiles.

The transition strategy takes a novel approach by not relying on government-provided buildings or technology. Instead, it will function autonomously, supported by private funds, to cover transition expenses, as reiterated by Wiles. This aligns with Trump's commitment to minimizing taxpayer expenditure as he prepares to assume office on January 20, 2025.

The Memorandum details specific plans, such as deploying landing teams to ensure readiness from day one, a pre-established Ethics Plan for smooth personnel integration, and a commitment to transparency in donor disclosure, all intended to uphold the administration's ethical standards while securing operational efficiency.
