Transgender Veteran Added To Biden’s Transition Team

/0 Comments/in , /by

Just a week after Election Day, President-elect Joe Biden is doubling down on promises made to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer Americans during his campaign and signaling his intent to reverse course from the Trump administration, which was marked by several rollbacks in LGBTQ rights. . .

That ambitious platform includes pledges to enact the Equality Act, reinstate Obama-era guidelines preventing anti-LGBTQ discrimination in areas like federal contracts, fight against broad carve-outs in antidiscrimination law on the basis of religious beliefs, end the transgender military ban, and eliminate LGBTQ youth homelessness. . .

To that end, Biden announced his transition team on Tuesday, with a press release stating “40 percent represent communities historically underrepresented in the federal government, including people of color, people who identify as LGBTQ+, and people with disabilities.”

One particularly notable LGBTQ member is Shawn Skelly, named as part of the Department of Defense advisory team. Skelly became the first transgender veteran appointed by a president when [he] joined the Obama administration in 2013. (Read more from “Transgender Veteran Added To Biden’s Transition Team” HERE)

Fox Tumbles as Trump Urges Followers To Turn Away Amid Rumors About Rival Offering

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Shares of Fox Corp., the corporate parent of Fox News and many of Rupert Murdoch’s remaining media assets following the sale of most of his entertainment business to Disney, are sliding Thursday after President Trump urged viewers to abandon Fox.

In a tweet, Trump essentially blamed the network for the election results, and argued that the network “forgot what made them successful”. . .

Trump’s comments probably had more impact since earlier today, Axios reported that the president has revived plans to launch his own digital media offering. Instead of a television channel, which would require enormous startup costs, the president is looking into a digital streaming project to rival Fox’s “Fox Nation” digital-subscription service.

Biden Informed of Pfizer’s Vaccine News Before Government Health Officials

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former Vice President Joe Biden was informed of Pfizer’s successful coronavirus vaccine news before the nation’s incumbent chief health care administrator, Secretary of Health and Human Services Alex Azar.

“I, as Secretary of Health and Human Services, learned about this from media reports on Monday morning,” Azar said Wednesday during an interview with Washington D.C. radio station WMAL. . .

“If the Biden campaign found out Sunday night but you … didn’t find out until Monday, that sounds like there’s a problem there,” WMAL host Vince Coglianese said during his interview with Azar.

“There certainly was a gap in communication, let’s say,” Azar responded.

According to RealClearPolitics, White House staff fumed at learning of the vaccine through the media as opposed to directly from the company as Biden did. (Read more from “Biden Informed of Pfizer’s Vaccine News Before Government Health Officials” HERE)

China: Republicans Working With Democrats to ‘Kick Trump Out’

/0 Comments/in , /by

China’s state-run Global Times reported on Thursday that “pro-establishment elites from both the Democrats and the Republicans are working together to kick Trump out of the White House” while President Donald Trump is still pursuing legal challenges against ballot counting in several close states.

“Chinese analysts said on Thursday that although Trump might have to accept his defeat eventually, his legacy has already made irreversible changes to the U.S. — The U.S. society has become more conservative and polarized, and the U.S.-led international alliance has become divided,” the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) paper wrote.

The Global Times cited American media reports indicating Trump could be planning a comeback bid in 2024 as “an implied acknowledgment of Trump’s failure among Republicans,” who must now accept the victory of former Vice President Joe Biden if they have any hope of hanging on to the 72 million votes Trump received during the election.

Expert Chinese analysts made the stunning prediction that Trump might not win the 2024 GOP primary if he runs again, because “Republicans such as Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, and Tom Cotton may seize the opportunity and have stronger influence by then,” and even Trump’s running mate Mike Pence could shoulder past him to run for the top job.

WATCH: Biden Breaks Serious Promise He Made at the First Debate With Trump

/0 Comments/in , /by

Joe Biden is moving ahead as the media-declared president-elect, but during the first presidential debate with President Trump, he affirmed he would “not declare victory until the election is independently certified.”

Moderator Chris Wallace posed the question to the former vice president during the Sept. 28 debate in Cleveland. . .

But amid lawsuits and investigations presenting evidence of serious vote fraud in the battleground states of Georgia, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan and Nevada, Biden delivered a victory speech Saturday declaring “the election is over.”

While major media outlets have called the race for Biden, none of the states have certified their votes, and the process won’t be finalized until January.

After local election officials verify their counts, the governor or another state official certifies the statewide results. The governor then certifies the slate of electors for the Electoral College.

Majority of Trump Voters Believe Biden’s ‘Win’ Is ‘Illegitimate’

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Trump campaign’s effort to undermine confidence in the integrity of the presidential election is working among voters who cast their ballot for President Trump but not many others.

Conducted between Sunday and Tuesday, a new poll from the Economist and YouGov revealed that 86% of the people who voted for the president believe Joe Biden did not win the presidential election “legitimately.” Only 14% of the Trump voters included in the poll believe Biden won the election “legitimately.”

Nearly all of the Biden voters surveyed in the poll said they believe he won the presidency “legitimately” — only 1% said the former vice president’s victory was illegitimate.

On Saturday, many mainstream outlets projected Biden to win the presidency. Trump’s campaign has brought up allegations of widespread fraud in many battleground states where Biden is ahead. The president has not yet conceded the election even though Biden has begun acting as president-elect. (Read more from “Majority of Trump Voters Believe Biden’s ‘Win’ Is ‘Illegitimate'” HERE)

CNN: Trump Putting U.S. at Risk for Another 9/11

/0 Comments/in , /by

CNN anchor Jim Sciutto said Wednesday on CNN’s “Newsroom” that President Donald Trump’s refusal to concede the 2020 presidential election could put America at risk for a terrorist attack like the 9/11 attacks.

Co-anchor Poppy Harlow asked, “Yes or no, are the actions of the president is taking now putting this country in danger?”

. . .Sciutto said, “Yep, that’s it fair. Let’s put some teeth on that if we can for a moment because they are sitting members of Congress who were around in their positions at the time of 9/11, and the 9/11 commission report specifically cited the shortened transition after the 2000 election for having an impact on national security. I’m quoting here, ‘It hampered the new administration in identifying, recruiting, clearing and obtaining Senate confirmation of key appointees.’ The fact is we have experienced for how shortened transition makes a difference in national security. Why aren’t we hearing from Republicans about that, granting that potential danger?” (Read more from “CNN: Trump Putting U.S. at Risk for Another 9/11” HERE)

Trump Wins Alaska, Decision Desk HQ Projects

/0 Comments/in , /by

Decision Desk HQ called Alaska for President Donald Trump on Wednesday morning, awarding him the state’s three electoral votes on the outlet’s election map.

Decision Desk HQ is the first major outlet to award the state to Trump over Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden. The call comes more than a week after election day on Nov. 3 and is one of the final states to be called by any major election decision desk. The state, which has elected an all-Republican congressional delegation, was widely expected to go to Trump despite significant delays in tallying its votes. . .

Decision Desk HQ declared Biden the winner of the presidential race over the weekend after projecting him to win Pennsylvania. A number of other major media companies followed suit, most after awarding the former vice president the state of Pennsylvania and pushing the Democratic candidate above 270 electoral votes on their election projection maps.

Here’s the Number of Biden Ballots That Need to Be Invalidated In Order to Get the House Involved; Michigan AG Threatens Journalist Exposing Vote Fraud

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Townhall.. . .Right now, the turnout in Wayne County, Michigan, which encompasses Detroit, looks like it’s too much to overcome. The city turned out enough to put Biden over the top in the immediate, but Arizona, Georgia, and Wisconsin are very close. Given the voter fraud allegations we’ve seen, it won’t take that many invalidated Biden ballots to make 2020 very interesting. And by that, I mean with a Trump win. Right now, in those three states, less than 50,000 ballots total (47,852 to be exact) need to be tossed over these voter integrity concerns in these three states. That’s it. Given that votes are being counted, let’s say a minimum of between 45,000-50,000 need to be trashed for Trump to clinch these states and end the 2020 cycle with a 269-269 Electoral College tie.

Michigan AG Threatens Journalist Exposing Vote Fraud

By WND. Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel sent a “cease and desist” letter to a website that published evidence prior to the election that Detroit poll workers were trained to engage in and cover up vote fraud.

Nessel is contesting Big League Politics reporter Shen Trejo’s reporting that poll workers bragged they were committing voter fraud in a variety of different ways, the Gateway Pundit reported.

Trejo, who says he witnessed vote fraud in Detroit, considers the AG’s letter to be “witness intimidation” and fears it will be used as a pretext for criminal action.

In a later date Oct. 28 and received Nov. 9, Nessel cites two or three factual errors in Trejo’s extensive reporting and demands that every article related to his #DetroitLeaks series be removed from the internet, the Gateway Pundit said.

Trejo reported Detroit poll workers were trained how to lie, how to handle ballot challenges from Trump supporters, told to call 911 on any challengers and to use COVID as an excuse to deny poll challengers access to viewing the ballots as they were being counted and tabulated. Even challenged ballots were to be processed as regular ballots. (Read more from “Michigan AG Threatens Journalist Exposing Vote Fraud” HERE)

Biden May Sue GSA Because It’s Not Obeying the Media’s Decision of Who Won

/0 Comments/in , /by

President-elect Joe Biden’s transition team is threatening legal action over the Trump administration’s refusal to formally begin the transition process – as President Trump carried out a post-election purge of agency heads and regulators in the bureaucracy.

Biden’s team is setting its sights on a federal agency’s delay in recognizing the Democrat’s victory over President Donald Trump in last week’s election.

The General Services Administration (GSA) normally recognizes a presidential candidate when it becomes clear who has won an election so that a transition of power can begin.

But the Trump-nominated official who runs the agencies has refused to assess the election being decided in Joe Biden’s favor, despite TV networks calling the race for Biden on Saturday after he secured enough electoral votes to secure the presidency.

The law does not clearly spell out when the GSA must act, but Biden transition officials say their victory is clear and a delay is not justified, even as Trump refuses to concede defeat. (Read more from “Biden May Sue GSA Because It’s Not Obeying the Media’s Decision of Who’s President” HERE)
