Tells Biden Campaign No Transfer of Power Until a ‘Clear, Constitutional Winner’ Is Decided…
As the campaign for Joe Biden attempts to push the General Services Administration (GSA) to approve a transfer of power, the agency said that it has not made an assessment of the situation.
“An ascertainment has not yet been made. GSA and its Administrator will continue to abide by, and fulfill, all requirements under the law,” a spokesperson with the GSA told Epoch Times on Monday morning.
The agency said that the GSA administrator, Emily Murphy, will only initiate the transition when a “clear winner is clear based on the process laid out in the Constitution.”
“The Administrator’s ascertainment is done for the purposes of making services provided by the [Presidential Transition Act] available,” the spokesperson added.
“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.”
A number of media outlets projected that Biden, a Democrat, was the winner, although Trump’s team has filed lawsuits in key battleground states, alleging irregularities and voter fraud. And in others, vote-counting is still ongoing.
The Epoch Times will not declare a winner of the 2020 presidential election until all results are certified and any legal challenges are resolved. Both candidates have claimed victory in certain states, but it appears increasingly likely that this election will be resolved in the courts.

Trump’s campaign has also pushed for recounts and canvasses in several states like Wisconsin and Georgia. Trump’s team said they would provide more evidence and announce more lawsuits.
According to Reuters, if the GSA signed off on the transition plan, it would provide Biden’s campaign with federal funding for travel and salaries.
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.
“The 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,” Connolly added.
In a 1963 law (pdf), the GSA’s 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.
If You Voted For Joe Biden, You Voted For Abortion, Oppressing Religion, Transgender Kids, Face Masks, Lockdowns, Illegal Immigration, Etc.
The soul of America is tainted. The tens of millions of Americans who voted for Joe Biden, have just voted to:
- Support abortion and infanticide under any circumstance;
- Smash religious liberty via the Equality Act;
- Prosecute the Little Sisters of the Poor, and any other Christian organization or person of faith seeking to follow their consciences;
- Make “transgender rights” the number one civil rights issue of our time;
- Mandate face masks across the nation interminably, keeping government’s boot on the neck of the economy;
- Allow minors as young as eight years old to choose dangerous hormone treatments to treat childhood and adolescent gender dysphoria without parental approval and despite parental objections: A temporary measure leading to a lifetime of pain and regret;
- Deny counseling for anyone with unwanted same-sex attraction and gender dysphoria;
- Squash the fossil fuel industry, tossing up to ten million people out of work, and ending affordable transportation and energy for all but elites;
- Open our borders, creating a tsunami of illegal immigration.
Whether or not the number is off by even a few million, around 70 million Americans still pulled the lever for Biden-Harris.
Perhaps worst of all:
- Because Joe Biden claims to be a Catholic, if he is elected president, the United States will offer a horribly distorted portrait of Catholicism and what it means to be a Catholic man to the entire world.
If Biden and Harris prevail in the race for the White House, brace yourself for a horrifying fundamental transformation of America, with Christian faith and morals in the crosshairs. Source: humansarefree
