Trump instructed key government agency acknowledges Biden's win and begins formal transition

Trump instructed key government agency acknowledges Biden's win and begins formal transition

The General Services Administration has informed President-elect Joe Biden that the Trump administration is ready to begin the formal transition process.
The letter is the standard first step the administration has taken to acknowledge President Donald Trump's defeat, only two weeks after Biden was declared by the media (not officially, yet) the winner in the election.

Murphy said she had not been pressured by the White House to delay the formal transition and did not make a decision "out of fear or favoritism."

"Please know that I came to my decision independently, based on the law and available facts," Murphy wrote. "I was never directly or indirectly pressured by any Executive Branch official -- including those who work at the White House or GSA -- with regard to the substance or timing of my decision. To be clear, I did not receive any direction to delay my determination."

The letter marks Murphy's formal sign off on Biden's victory, a normally perfunctory process known as ascertainment. The move will allow the transition to officially begin, permitting current administration agency officials to coordinate with the incoming Biden team, and providing millions in government funding for the transition.

All the brain-washed that claim that Trump will never do it will have to invent now a new conspiracy theory.

Dear Barbi,

I am pro balance. When I write against Trump people say I am pro Biden and vice-versa.

The most important is never to look down on all the people that claim the election was fair -media and social media wise- and believe that there is nothing to question about the whole process.

They are not bad people and not stupid people. They deserve mercy as any other blind.

Anyway, some of those blinds who read it suddenly forget that only yesterday they genuinely belive that Trump will refuse to leave the office nor to cooperate even after 20 January.

And if you will try to confront the with their conspiracy? - their dishonesty will quickly invent some baseless excuse, just not to admit how wrong they are.

Same EVENT. Interesting to compare the presentation by the FT to the that of the London Daily!

Donald Trump tells government to co-operate with Biden transition:

I may suspect that the London Daily is pro Trump based on this article.
