The Epoch Times<\/a> is reporting today that the General Services Administration (GSA) is not moving toward a transfer of power under the constitutional requirements of an election victory are met.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

\u201cAn ascertainment has not yet been made. GSA and its Administrator will continue to abide by, and fulfill, all requirements under the law,\u201d a spokesperson with the GSA told Epoch Times on Monday morning.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The agency said that the GSA administrator, Emily Murphy, will only initiate the transition when a \u201cclear winner is clear based on the process laid out in the Constitution.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThe Administrator\u2019s ascertainment is done for the purposes of making services provided by the [Presidential Transition Act] available,\u201d the spokesperson added. \u201cUntil an ascertainment is made, the statute allows for the Biden Transition Team to continue to receive the pre-elect services from the government (e.g., limited office space, computers, background investigations for security clearances). GSA has met all statutory requirements under the PTA for this election cycle and will continue to do so.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

A number of media outlets projected that Biden, a Democrat, was the winner, although Trump\u2019s team has filed lawsuits in key battleground states, alleging irregularities and voter fraud. And in others, vote-counting is still ongoing.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Epoch Times will not declare a winner<\/a> of the 2020 presidential election until all results are certified and any legal challenges are resolved.\u00a0Both candidates have claimed victory in certain states, but it appears increasingly likely that this election will be resolved in the courts.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Biden supporters celebrating in the streets are somewhat premature. Until the issues of major fraud in battleground states are resolved, there is no clear winner in this election.<\/p>\n

The article concludes:<\/p>\n

According to Reuters<\/a>, if the GSA signed off on the transition plan, it would provide Biden\u2019s campaign with federal funding for travel and salaries.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sen. Gerry Connolly (D-Va.), the chairman of the House Oversight and Reform Subcommittee on Operations, told Reuters that there needs to be a speedy transition process due to the pandemic.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThe Administrator plays a critical role in the peaceful transfer of power and ensuring vital government services are not disrupted. This is all the more important amid a deadly pandemic,\u201d Connolly added.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In a 1963 law (pdf<\/a>), the GSA\u2019s administration will decide when a winner is determined. Then it opens the doors to U.S. federal agencies and provides them with operational funding. The incoming administration then had about two months to organize itself before Jan. 20.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I hate to be cynical here, but of course the Democrats want a speedy transition process–that way all of the voter fraud will go away. The Democrats spent four years undermining the presidency of President Trump. They do not have the right to undermine the election process.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
