I mean listen to Biden talk right? It wouldn't materially speed things up, the legal machine here isn't gonna make things move faster than the month or so before they're required to do it... I am inclined to believe he knows what he's talking about, and the message it would send to who he is trying to treat like colleagues ain't a great one to start out with.
Biden is correct. He should wait until a lawsuit would be effective, if it still needs it next month.
I don't think a lawsuit would achieve anything, since she is only breaking "gentleman's agreement" norms, and not any laws.
General Services Administration.
He's outright saying legal action wouldn't necessarily get him anything faster which is... I dunno what could be done about this.
General Services Administration, aka the team that's supposed to assist the President-elect with access to daily confidential briefings, office space, computers, passwords, background investigations for security clearances, etc., so the Biden Administration can start January 20th ready to go. Instead Biden is getting actively rejected by them, so they have to work out of their own pocket and the transition will be delayed when Biden becomes president.
They make the transition funding happen. It's a requirement as part of the turnover of power. Biden transition team is hamstrung by a never-before-seen refusal by the GSA.
I'm so excited for a federal judge compelling the GSA to do the right thing and Lisa Murphy saying "no" and nobody doing anything
This is accurate. By the time anything happened in court in regards to this specific instance, every state will have likely certified their vote counts. Doing it before the counts are certified gives them the opportunity to play into that. If the votes counts get certified and it is irrefutable, and then the GSA still doesn't do anything, THEN they should be ready for legal action.
Yeah, that seems likely. Ignore the ruling and/or pardon everyone involved.
