It's a paragraph from The Fifth Risk by Michael Lewis. He's the same author who wrote The Big Short, Moneyball, Liars Poker, The Blind Side and more. I've read most of his books and enjoyed all of them so far.

While likely not true in this particular case, its definitely true in others. The Fifth Risk (The Fifth Risk https://www.amazon.com/dp/1324002646/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_.WEXDbWE6MD4E) calls out quite clearly he had almost nothing to do with, and explicitly was angered by, transition team planning.

This is a really good book by the author of Moneyball, The Big Short, Liar's Poker and others. It details just how different the incoming Trump Administration was from the prior Obama and Bush Administrations, and how dangerous that level of incompetence continues to be.

No. Or at least I'm not aware of it.

I learned quite a bit about the Department of Agriculture and the Department of Energy from reading The Fifth Risk. Highly recommended.

The Fifth Risk has really opened my eyes to how government organizations are run and what they actually do. Only partway through, but it's been extremely informative...and scary
