Expert says Biden team losing "precious time"

President-elect Joe Biden is calling on the federal government's General Services Administration to authorize his presidential transition despite pushback from President Trump. Without this authorization, Mr. Biden doesn't have access to information or resources that he needs before he takes office in January. Kathryn Dunn Tenpas, a senior research director for the White House Transition Project and a senior fellow at the University of Virginia's Miller Center, joined CBSN's Lana Zak to discuss.

Iran expands its stockpile of enriched uranium

A new report from the International Atomic Energy Agency reveals that Iran now has 12 times the amount of enriched uranium permitted under the 2015 Iranian nuclear deal. This latest development gives additional insight into the surmounting challenge the incoming Biden administration will face in an attempt to contain Iran's nuclear capabilities. Former United States Secretary of Energy and the co-chair and CEO of the Nuclear Threat Initiative, Dr. Ernest Moniz, helped negotiate the 2015 accord. He joins CBSN to discuss what this means for the safety of the U.S. and its allies moving forward.
