Biden can start getting presidential briefing

President-elect Joe Biden is forging ahead with the transition process as he weighs filling more key Cabinet posts in the coming weeks. He can now start accessing the presidential daily briefing, which includes crucial reports from the U.S. intelligence community, after the General Services Administration finally approved the transition. CBS News correspondent Nikole Killion reports from Wilmington, Delaware, and she joined CBSN with CBS News White House correspondent Ben Tracy to discuss the latest.

Some GOP senators support intelligence briefings for Biden

A growing number of Republicans in the Senate say President-elect Joe Biden should begin receiving high-level intelligence briefings as he prepares to take over the presidency, which he is not yet getting due to the lack of formal acknowledgement from the General Services Administration that he is the likely winner of the presidential election. CBS News White House correspondent Ben Tracy and CBS News political correspondent Ed O'Keefe join Lana Zak to discuss.

CBS News chief congressional correspondent Nancy Cordes spoke with several GOP senators who said they were unaware of any specific fraud allegations, particularly in their own races. She joins CBSN with more on that, plus how Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell might work with the new administration.
