The letter is missing – the US authorities cross the line after Biden’s victory

Donald Trump

With the announcement of the election victory by the US media, the time actually begins for Joe Biden and his team in which they start administrative processes until they take office on January 20th. But obstacles are being put in the way of the elected new president. Possible delay for the change of power in the White House: According to a media report, the management of the agency responsible for the US government buildings will refuse to sign a letter giving the Biden transition team access to US authorities and formally starting work this week can. This is a further sign that incumbent Donald Trump does not recognize the election victory of the Democrat Joe Biden and could disrupt the transfer of power, writes the Washington Post.

Defeat not admitted Trump etches against US election tradition

Such a letter from the General Services Administration (GSA) amounts to a formal statement by the US government about the winner of the presidential election, according to the newspaper. The incumbent US President Trump is still trying to win the election through legal means such as lawsuits in individual states. After the election of a new president, the GSA, writes the Washington Post, has the role of granting the winning team access to government buildings, e-mails, government officials and computer systems by declaring the “apparent winner” of a presidential election. to release previously approved funds for salaries and administration, and to create rooms in each US agency. Building a new government is estimated at a sum of 9.9 million dollars (about 8.3 million euros) this year. But authority chief Emily Murphy did not write such a letter on Sunday evening (local time) and thus almost 36 hours after the election winner was proclaimed by the media, the Washington Post continues. And the Trump administration seems to have no immediate plans for such a letter, in line with Trump’s line of not recognizing Biden’s election victory. “This could be an initial delay in the transition to modern times – except in 2000, when the Supreme Court ruled on a recount dispute between Al Gore and George W. Bush,” the newspaper said.

Reitz on US economic policy “Biden will not be able to do everything new”

Unimpressed by this, Biden took the first steps to prepare for his assumption of office. The 77-year-old and his future Vice-President Kamala Harris announced a joint briefing in Wilmington by a team of Corona experts for today. Biden then wants to speak about the corona crisis and measures to stimulate the economy at his residence in the US state of Delaware. The two Democrats launched a website Buildbackbetter.com and a Twitter account @ Transition46 for the transition period until the planned assumption of office in January. The website lists four priorities for the new presidency: the fight against Covid-19, economic recovery, the fight against racism and climate change. His team will “tackle these challenges from day one,” it said with reference to January 20, when Biden will be sworn in as the 46th President of the United States. In the fight against the corona pandemic, Biden wants to set up a crisis team, which is made up of scientists and experts and is supposed to work out a plan that can come into effect when he takes office.
