  1. This puts our national security at risk and should be considered a crime! Joe Biden is our next president plain and simple and the Trump Administration slowing him down or hiding information should be considered obstruction of justice!

    1. @George W Biden you’re a bright one aren’t you, as if the military is the only way we can be threatened nationally or internationally? We have been compromised already geopoliticallyl, nationally, internationally and otherwise!

    2. Lots of Communists posting in the fake news not surprising. The only person who will be attested is China Joe and his cracked bagman son Hunter

    3. Lmao you encouraged this behaviour, it was ok to hold up everything president Trump tried to do, not so much fun now is it? This is your life from now on! Pawns caught up in the system you created! You destroyed your country and ripped up the fabric that held you together over two rich old men! America is finished

    4. @Emz 3103 please tell me how I encouraged this corruption? I didn’t even vote for Trump and I was a republican so what’s your point?

  2. Don’t understand why Biden , isn’t getting the information . Trump obviously isn’t doing anything about it !!

    1. The Trump Administration has screwed up our government agencies so badly, they are slow walking the transition. The Trump Administration will be exposed for their incompetence as soon as any hand off begins. Trump is furthering Steve Bannon goal of dismantling the government so they can claim government doesn’t work so they can continue to under fund key programs.

  3. Miller “Done our utmost to support transition activities in a compressed time schedule” Gee i wonder why it is so compressed… 10 to 1 Trump does not even attend the Inauguration.. Loser.

    1. @Jason Boyce So you agree.. He will not be at the inauguration…Cool.. He has just has to stay out of jail beforehand. Id wager, he will have died before then. Funny because it’s pretty publicly known, Floridians do not want him there.

    2. Unfortunately his right wing thugs and goons are planning to attend the inauguration to hurt people and create trouble.

  4. Just imagine all the dirt. Trump’s team is not trying to incriminate themselves. I see they are no adults left who cares about America’s safety and it appears everyone is fighting with each other to realize we are in serious trouble. PREACH

  5. Joe Biden should explain to wayward political operatives that when all is said and done, the justice department will come knocking

    1. @Peter Rawai : despite the coup openly flainted by trump & enablers, weakling biden still talk of unity like a senile old man man …. its obvious 74 millions do not accept biden as president so he should cut the bs of unity …

    2. @golden bar Still hope for those 74 millions. Not everyone is completely without intelligence and observation skills.

    3. @golden bar
      Given the choice between Biden’s obvious age and trump’s obvious mental decay, I’d say the best choice was obvious for more than half of us.
      FYI, Biden isn’t senile. It’s obvious you have never had to deal with that heartbreaking problem because once you do, you generally don’t call it in others when it’s not there. Usually that only happens with the uninformed and uneducated. By that same standard, trump’s mental disabilities have been apparent for years to ANY one with ANY type of experience in that area!
      Old or Crazy ?? Easy choice for a rational mind.

    1. @mark Evans
      Gramps take yourself and your new account to Chucky E Cheese.
      You come here to entertain yourself.
      Might as well hang with some pre schoolers who are above your intellect and entertainment level.
      Perhaps they can teach you a thing or two beyond your remedial education.
      Dunce! 🙈

  6. Trump put them there to do just that! Lock them up arrest those who break the laws and send a message that law works in our country and criminals and tyranny will not be tolerated here.

    1. 74 million Americans DO believe criminals and tyrrany will be tolerated in America… wake up and realize the VOTERS are the problem.. NOT the politicians.. the VOTERS ALLOW this to happen

  7. The Lord of Chaos struck again with the usual inept, short term thinking game plan:
    1. Create an issue where no issue exists
    2. Demand, demand, demand
    3. Get nothing in return agree and claim credit
    The schmuck in chief has an upcoming date with destiny, the NY-Southern District Court

    1. @Jeweled Bird
      Then what value is the U. S. Constitution that the states ratified?

      There is a Constitutional process, which we are all being held witness to, that will play out in full on January 6. Until then, no other entity has the authority to call the election in favor of any individual. Not AP, FB, Twitter, Google, Mainstream media, nor any other individual or group of people.

      Every thing else is deception.

    2. ​@Scott Proctor Really. So when it was declared that Trump had won in 2016 on the night of the election, that was wrong? Trump shouldn’t have given a victory speech? Obama shouldn’t have begun the transition until January 6?

      Stop being so hypocritical.

      The January 6 “process” is the Congress accepting what has already been ratified: the people voted, the states certified, the electors were chosen, the electors voted and now Biden is president-elect.

      And unless Trump and his acolytes can actually provide evidence why Congress shouldn’t accept the will of the people and the certification of the states, Congress will accept the electors’ vote. Given that he has failed so far, I wouldn’t hold my breath. 59 lawsuits (none of them alleging fraud, despite what Trump and Giuliani proclaimed via tweet and press conferences in landscaping parking lot) and they’ve lost 58 of them. The only one they did manage to win was on procedure–shortening the length of time to cure a ballot from nine days to six.

      58 to 1.

      Even the SCOTUS wouldn’t hear their complaints.

      So, rail against it all you want. Biden will be president on January 20.

    3. @Jeweled Bird
      That was a lot of words, based on an uncertain premise that a specific set of electors will all be accepted by congress.

      Have some patience. You’re sounding a little deranged… wait until January 7th, then we can all debate the election with more certainty.

  8. That’s right President-elect Biden. Call them out. And take care to dismiss every single one of the snakes on day one!

  9. We have created the biggest voter fraud organization this country has ever seen
    A quote that will be repeated for the next century
    Thanks joe 🇺🇸

    1. The so called “Patriotic Republican party” is endangering national security for cheap shot political advantage. We should not be surprised, they were equally silent about Russian bounties on our troops.

  10. If some power uses this gap in intelligence sharing to attack the US, any obstructors should be charged with treason.

  11. Change the title:
    Biden EXPOSES Trump Political Appointees Obstructing a Smooth Transition.
    He didn’t “accuse”, he WAS STATING FACTS, NOT ACCUSING.
