Summary
Donald Trump’s transition team is raising unlimited funds from undisclosed donors, including foreign nationals, bypassing federal transparency rules by refusing to sign agreements with the Biden administration.
This breaks from tradition, sparking concerns about potential conflicts of interest and influence over the incoming administration.
The team has also failed to enable FBI background checks for appointees and has not submitted an ethics plan required for pre-inauguration access to federal agencies.
Critics warn that this secrecy undermines accountability during the critical handover of power.
The answer to voting in a fascist is to cede the majority of the nation’s territory to them? Those poor fools who weren’t fortunate enough to live in a blue state…
Reminds me of what Abraham Lincoln said to the Confederacy: “If you’re too stupid not to realize slavery is bad, make your own country. Surely your slaves will realize that blue states are better.”
