The Transition Team anounsd for the various federal agencies. The Washington Post describes the teams as, quote, a list of 500 experts in federal policy from diplomacy to Space Exploration who will form the backbone of bidens preparations to lead the federal government in january, learning from the work force what to expect at every agency on personnel, technology, policy and program matters. And why wouldnt joe biden be preparing . He won the election. As votes continue to be tabulated, bidens popular vote lead today neared 4. 7 million votes, a more than 3 margin over donald trump. The last time a challenger ousts a firstterm president by a margin bigger than that was when fdr unseated Herbert Hoover in 1932. So, thats it. Lets call that earth one. Some might just call it reality. Joe biden won the election by a decisive marg

And as u. S. Senators play cultural warrior on twitter top chef on the National Emergency for restaurants and all who work in them. When all in starts right now. Good evening from new york. Im chris hayes. The president ial election has been over for a while now, but now it is overer, if that makes sense. Even more over, over again.

Which trump at the time called a massive landslide. As the loser he has 58 days to pack his stuff and go. Instead
