Wicked Them Beats posted:My understanding is that the Agency Review Teams and the Biden Transition Team are separate entities (the former is overseen by the latter). You won't find Ted Kaufman's name on the ART list either but he's in charge of the whole thing. Apologies, I wasn’t doubting the story itself, the AP article just seems like it’s regurgitating older news. One example here (The Hill, I know, but it’s not the only one from back in September). quote:Immigration advocates are livid over the Biden transition team's addition of Cecilia Muñoz, a former Obama administration official who was the public face of that administration's immigration policy. So, to close my train of thought, since I didn’t see Muñoz on the team page, it was possible they’re not actually including her in the actual transition, now that Biden’s president-elect. I guess it would be nice to get a confirmation from the campaign itself.

Halloween Jack posted:I think people ought to have an extremely low regard for the legitimacy of the electoral process. If that's accelerationism, so be it. We have to have a reckoning over it, and the further off it is the worse it's going to be. It's not like the Republicans are going to advocate for real election reform though. This is just part of a strategy to corrupt the electoral process further as they've been doing for decades. If we want electoral reform at a federal level the best chance is a Dem majority in both houses and the Presidency. Then we might get bills like HR-1 passed. Republicans will continue to corrupt the electoral system to ensure that doesn't happen. This nonsense from the Republicans is only taking us one step further to the collapse of the US as we know it.

So, someone who understands the Pennsylvania law more, help me understand what's going on here with this new president judge decision. As far as I can tell -in September, the Penn SC says the Secretary of State can, infact, extend the deadline for mail ballots she postmarked before Election Day until Nov. 6th. -End of October, the case had gone to the SCOTUS, which rules neither way. -Nov. 6th, Alito grants a GOP request to segregate the ballots this would have affected -Today, the President Judge of the Commonwealth Court, which is apparently an Appellate court, says this whole thing should have never happened because the SoS doesn't have that authority. I can see how point 4 would contradict 2, because there was no ruling, but doesn't it fly in the face of point 1? How does a mid level court get to overturn the decision of the state Supreme Court? How many votes does this affect anyway?

They can't really do this the only State that may not make the deadline , maybe is Georgia. This doesn't work for a variety of reasons. They'd even with out Georgia Biden is above the required 50% + threshold.

yea there's no 'clock' to run out, GA is the only one that can drag rear end for like, a full month MAYBE and even if they get their miracle shot and get a win there...Biden still wins. The only 'clock' here is the deadline to certify election results and the court cases are crumbling long before the end date.

According to MSNBC , George Recount starts tomorrow morning with counties responsible for the recounting, they have until Wednesday of next week to do the count and then the State Certifies next Friday. Kind of curious if they'll make that deadline.

It's not "normal" to want to change a system that you benefit from despite the horrors it visits on members of lower castes, is the most charitable way I can describe the sentiment. It's disgusting and I won't dignify it with anything else, but I saw it and I knew it for what it was immediately.

generic one posted:Apologies, I wasn’t doubting the story itself, the AP article just seems like it’s regurgitating older news. One example here (The Hill, I know, but it’s not the only one from back in September). That's because the ARTs are not the "transition." They are employees (edit: actually in this case most of them are "volunteers" but assume their work here is basically an audition) working at the behest of the transition. Strangely the Transition Team doesn't seem to be featured on Biden's transition website, just the Agency Review Teams. Here's the only list I could quickly find of the Transition Team that was established a couple of months ago. As far as I can tell none of those people are members of the ARTs, despite having titles like "Co-Chair" or "Transition Team Full-Time Staff." If they've all been laid off it was done very quietly, and I assure you Ted Kaufman getting fired would have generated at least one article. Another example is that Cynthia Hogan is on that list and she literally quit her job at Apple to join up with Team Joe. I doubt she did so with the understanding that she would only be involved for a few months and then told to pound sand. The president appoints something insane like 4,000 people and those people go on to hire thousands more in each of the agencies they work in or oversee, so it's not safe to assume that someone isn't involved just because they haven't been generating recent headlines. Muñoz is definitely active in setting up the Biden administration which suggests she's going to be a part of it, or at the least have a strong influence on it.

I'm sort of curious why you think that pointing out that people like me shouldn't be born because of our genetics, using my avatar as a platform, is supposed to be an effective strategy. I'm already perfectly aware of the kind of rhetoric that people with severe genetic disorders receive. I'm not a eugenicist, in fact I have a pretty consistent stance that I don't like eugenics, so threatening me with eugenics is sort of business as usual. Eugenics is the enemy of people with genetic disorders, that's not news?
