The head of the General Services Administration (GSA) is refusing requests from Joe Biden to formally begin the transition process, saying the winner has yet to be determined

The agency is charged with the process of transferring power t a new administration but a spokesperson said on Monday that the “GSA and its administrator will continue to abide by, and fulfill, all requirements under the law” according to The Epoch Times reports.

According to the agency Trump nominated head of the GSA Emily W. Murphy will not initiate the transition until a “winner is clear, based on the process laid out in the Constitution.”

The delay is costing Joe Biden team’s access to millions of dollars in federal funding and the ability to meet with officials at intelligence agencies and other departments

News Max reports: Mainstream news organizations called the election for Biden on Saturday, but President Donald Trump has refused to concede, alleging election irregularities in several states. His legal team has filed lawsuits in five states, some in which vote counting continues.

Newsmax has not called the race, instead waiting for the legal process to play out.

“The administrator’s ascertainment is done for the purposes of making services provided by the [Presidential Transition Act] available,” the GSA spokesperson told the Times. “Until 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.”

The federal agency normally recognizes a presidential candidate when it becomes clear who has won an election, an official told reporters on a call, adding that the transition team may take legal action.

The GSA’s refusal to begin the official transition is keeping Biden’s team from receiving travel expenses and salaries.

  1. So Joe wants to steal MORE money from America???

    When this is flipped in the SCOTUS will he have GLADLY given the MILLIONS OF DOLLARS BACK???????

    Somehow I doubt it… WE would have to sue his crooked ass.

  2. It doesnt happen legally until December ,either the 4th or 8 th I think from memory ,anyway.But his win is very very tentative and it’s highly probable that he will be disqualified due to cheating illegalities and failure to meet legal obligations involving transparency and technicalities such as only accepting votes from live persons

  3. It sounds like Biden wants the money. The media is not a government agency and the fact that they have projected a winner doesn’t mean any more then if the McDonald’s staff project a winner.
