Former Vice President Joe Biden has assembled a transition team for a smooth return to the White House, should he beat President Trump in the November election.
Leading the team is former Sen. Ted Kaufman (D-DE), who filled Biden's senate seat when he became VP - and led Biden's 2008 and 2009 transition team, according to Fox News.
Kauffman says they're in the "very early stages of pre-transition planning" after hiring around six people - including "Obama Administration and Capitol Hill veterans," according to the report. There's also a former CIA official.
Yohannes Abraham, a longtime senior White House staffer in the Obama administration and former COO of the Obama Foundation, will manage day-to-day operations. Avril Haines, former principal deputy national security advisor and deputy director of the CIA, will manage the transition's national security and foreign policy efforts.
Other staffers will include Gautam Raghavan, chief of staff to Rep. Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash.; Angela Ramirez, chief of staff to Assistant Speaker Ben Ray Lujan of New Mexico; Evan Ryan, a senior advisor to Biden during the Obama administration, and Julie Siegel, who worked for Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., as senior counsel for economic policy. -Fox News
"The next president will confront an ongoing global health pandemic and inherit an economy in its worst shape since the Great Depression," he said in a statement. "No one will have taken office facing such daunting obstacles since Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Joe Biden is prepared to meet these urgent challenges on the day he is sworn in as president, and begin the hard work of addressing the public health crisis and rebuilding an economy that puts working families first."
According to team Biden, the timing of the transition staffing coincides with the "Edward "Ted" Kaufman and Michael Leavitt Presidential Transitions Improvement Act of 2015" which requires that campaigns begin initial transition work six months before an election.

ReplyDeleteSuch a waste of time and money
ReplyDeleteI just threw up a little...
ReplyDeleteWould be funny if they are called to be on the jury when he is indicted.
ReplyDeleteHilliary did the same thing - when she was ahead in the polls!
ReplyDeleteHere we go again. Another regime of crooks and liars on deck! What is the major malfunction voters have in realizing once a loser always one. These political hacks have proven to be worthless like Biden and his senility is displayed as he's designing a batting order to put them back in the mainstream to be just as incompetent as they were initially. He can't have fresh ideas because he's lost in his age and cloudy in his mind.
ReplyDeleteI pray to God every night that he will put a stop to this because we're no better off than the Israelites that were under the rule of the Pharaoh.
People have to realize Biden is so far behind mentally his camp is running and framing and calling the shots because he's out of touch with reality. The reason Trump won is because they're tired of the same old 76 and Trump instead of a politician but a businessman, provided a sorely needed change of pace, a breath of fresh air if you will.
As the man with a gun would say when you resist, 'think about it'!
Voting for Biden resets the meter in the negative and again adverse results will be realized.
Another corrupt POS from our government. It's alright Joe. You'll be in a state hospital before Nov.
