Could DeJoy have figured out how the divert ballots from Democratic area directly to the undeliverable mail recycling centers???? ...This could explain the missing 13M Democratic votes??
I agree. I wonder how many Trump nominees have the words rape kit, adultery, abuse of animals, security risk, or Putin asset attached to their backgrounds? He is building a cast of characters for a reality tv show instead of choosing the most qualified people for leadership roles in government.
They need to do one on Trump too. I don't get how he can be trusted with classified intel again after what he did before? All those docs in the bathroom and ballroom at MAL???
You are right. They should also release the results to the public. They won’t because deep down inside they are cowards. They will hide under the excuse that it is “not conventional “. Deep down inside we know they are really cowards.
We need more than an administrative law for that. It should be mandatory that all candidates for high level positions should be legally required to have background checks. DJT keeps circumventing this.
When the SCOTUS found Colorado cannot decide who runs federally, wasn’t the argument that the 12th amendment was to prohibit insurrectionists from “taking office” rather than running for office? Are we now saying laws apply “unless you’re popular”?
If it isn't obvious to everyone yet, No one is coming to our rescue. Both Biden & Harris have abandoned us, along with the entire Democratic party. He's not going to do anything. How is that not obvious? Fed us to the wolves. Trump is already causing so much pain & Biden is doing photoshoots.😪
Why doesn’t someone draft legislation that requires passing a Top Secret level background check for anyone seeking federal office before they can be added to a primary ballot? How about we do that?!
This would weed out a lot corruption from the jump. How about that for a guardrail?
Fight their #RepublicanCrimeSyndicate with everything we have. #WeThePeople are done accepting BS because they "said to" and are going to give them absolute hell.
Frank, are you sure there's statutory authority under the PTA for investigation of possible nominees? 3 USC 102(f)(1) says the "apparently successful" candidate "should" submit the names of possible appointees to national security posts./1
Extraordinary times require extraordinary measures, stated by you Frank. What can the current administration do to protect our democracy from these threats. We truly need to hear that someone will be bold and push back in a big way.
Dear f
I think this is sort of urgent, if you know anyone in Georgia !
thanks !
it is important to confirm Judges; apparently GA Sen Ossoff is blocking this nominee
Please, you know anyone in GA, ask them to call Sen Ossoff and get him to support this nominee https://bsky.app/profile/prof...
Didn’t do any good when Jared Kirshner & Ivanka didn’t pass their security clearances. “Prez”🍊 ordered John Kelly, chief of Staff, to allow their clearances. Then, Jared was never investigated for accepting $2B from Saudi Arabia. Here we are again with 🍊 thanks to Merrick Garland.
Biden should hand off Presidency to Harris, now. Let her go after the traitors to our Democracy. She can use the military & have a Rump and all court marshaled; and announce that she's not leaving.
Actually Trump should be arrested and held for trials on documents and 1/6...he needs to be tried before assuming office...what other country lets a convicted felon w serious charges pending take over the country???
They failed the security clearance requirements in his last administration. Some failed a few times and he just approved the clearances they desired. Jared and Ivanka both were approved when they should have been arrested for lying on government documents.😒
Does the FBI director have to resign? I thought it was a 10-year term. Can any resistance come about in a government position? We want good people to stay, retaliation can be ever good person leaving the job, not good either.
Y’all, have Democrats EVER stood up to the bullies? NO. They’re cowards hiding behind decorum “taking the higher ground”.They congratulated Dubya on his “win” when we could all clearly see they STOLE the White House! 🤬
Of all the items on Biden’s to-do list before he leaves - this would not be on it. The president-elect couldn’t even pass a background check and it’s not like he gives a damn.
Have you called Chuck Schumer?
I'm just wondering if hearing directly from people like you might light the smallest, cutest, least threatening fire under his soft, useless ass.
Please explain, anyone, why the senate isn't taking a harder stance for the two months they have left?
Why?
There are numerous things they could do to slow trump's roll & still they're just: we'll appoint JB's nominees so don't expect MORE. We're bitches.
I mean, Biden could even make it sound like he's being helpful -- making sure there is no delay in getting Trump's picks confirmed by doing the necessary background checks now...
Exactly what I posted yesterday! Citizens deserve to know who Trump's nominated (or appointed, as he's demanding recess appointments!). Joe Biden is still President; he needs to USE his Powers.
I'm baffled at the apparent lack of activity and desperately needed leadership from the White House. Truly distressing. Tick, tick, tick, the country is literally ticking away.
I remain in shock that he won again, and also that this isn't raising all sorts of alarm bells, not so much that the R's are going to let him by with this unprecedented move. Honest question, isn't there at least one R Senator who'll speak out about this dangerous demand??
SEX or no...

From my perspective, this is a time for action. Are any state or county election results being contested besides Philly? In 2020, republicans filed suit after suit. And Democrats? Crickets. Biden has this added authority from the GOP SCOTUS, but won't use it. When someone punches, you punch back.
I guess this is legal since you’re the expert, but can this be a clandestine operation? Release the findings way before the tangerine tyrant’s inauguration, otherwise it’s insurrection 2.0.
he shouldn’t even be transferring power. What the fuck is happening to everyone? You all just slotted right in, just like the fascist playbook would expect. This isn’t normal, it’s unconstitutional, it will kill Americans, it will kill and betray allies. Expect Putin to walk out for a USA presser
“The point would be to force Trump’s hand. Drop the reports on his desk and let him go forward with nominees who potentially are either found through investigation to be unqualified, at risk of compromise, or even a national security threat.”
Another law that will have to be added once Dems are in power again. A law the forefathers didn’t have specifically worded in the constitution never thinking such a corrupt person would ever be elected. I imagine they thought Americans would be smarter than that
They won’t dems like to come 2 gun fights wit knives so we got no chance of them doin ANYTHING
it’ll b up to us n we should start the ground game rite now n make a back up plan when the military turns its guns on us Cause they will n trump will c to it n I know the dems have no plans to stop him
Is Biden really that incompetent? How dumb do you have to be not to say "In order to ensure a smooth transition, I've ordered the necessary security and background checks that will allow the President elect to get his team confirmed quickly...."
Frank, as much as I agree with you, there are 2 problems here...1 being the current FBI Director was appointed by the cheato. The second is minor-many lose fingerprints because of meds/treatments like chemo. How do you vet someone without fingerprints?
Why is always the democrats’ job to clean up after the republicans? This is why people keep voting republican! Let them find out who the republicans really are for once & for all!
The VERY worst of all of this is that the people Donald Trump is hiring have ZERO experience, yet they ALL have the AUDACITY to accept these positions KNOWING they are NOT qualified.
I’m mystified as to WHY they think they are a fit for these positions.
Sounds good in theory. I heard Senator Warren say tonight, though, that since the Dem. focus is on getting judicial nominees through the process, oversight of his cabinet picks is up to the Senate GOP and “the American people.” 🙃

We cannot take Trump's word for it, he has poor judgment.

Does his administration not see what’s coming???

The people in positions to take action are being complicit. And at this point that includes the outgoing administration.
and the entire Republican party?
Do you all remember when FBI director James Comey
brought stain on Hillary Clinton for the perceived breach
of security and Biden was also criticized for taking home
documents? GOP BUILT 2 CAMPAIGNS
ON BREACH OF SECURITY?
Where are @potus @fbi @senateJudiciary ?
Do it now!
And include Vivik and Elmo too
2) And can/will Chris Wray deliver them quickly (like within the next 7 days)?

President Biden has 60 days left to do something.
“The point would be to force Trump’s hand. Drop the reports on his desk and let him go forward with nominees who potentially are either found through investigation to be unqualified, at risk of compromise, or even a national security threat.”
Excellent idea which would underscore what many already KNOW.
that you can do to contain and detain these new comers….🍃💙🎶🦋

FOLD.

Would really shake things up, no?

They WILL fail. 🚫
They do not play fair. They will destroy this country unless you grow some balls!

Why is Biden rolling over?
