Summary

Sen. Elizabeth Warren accused President-elect Donald Trump and his transition team of violating the Presidential Transition Act by failing to prevent conflicts of interest and sign an ethics agreement, a law Warren helped author.

Her comments follow a CNN report suggesting that Trump’s team has withheld necessary transition agreements from the Biden administration due to conflict-of-interest concerns.

Rep. Jamie Raskin also criticized Trump’s refusal to engage in standard transition protocols, warning it could disrupt the peaceful transfer of power. Trump’s actions break a precedent set by presidential candidates since 2010.

Not sure exactly what pushes one over the boundary but clearly for some people they are merely “the suggestions”

Yeah, none of those laws have any punishments associated with them, same with the presidential records Act. The only remedy is impeachment, and obviously there’s no way that happens.

At this point I am no longer surprised just wanting to know what the consequences are.

SON OF A BITCH!!! Let’s do nothing at him again. Maybe we can impeach him a few more times or hang some felony convictions around to remind him that he was naughty.

I’m not saying “do nothing.” I’m saying “we’ve heard this song before. Somebody better fucking dance this time.”
