L. F. Is adamant that i mean, ive lost all china launches an unmanned spacecraft to the moon and aims to bring back walks for blueness office and all the sports captain. He has been left out of the cattle and they get ready to face the animal key if i can. Following weeks of delay and uncertainty, u. S. President elect, joe biden has now formally begun his transition to the white house, the head of the General Services administration. As designated by the apparent winner of this months president ial election, that clears the way for the transition to get underway. Donald trump, who has refused to concede defeat or the rise to his administration to a new, she ate the process. Hes vowed to keep up the fight though, insisting without evidence that the election was quote, corrupt by this team is welcome, the move, which frees up millions of dollars for his new administration. It could now work with federal officials on a coronavirus response, as well as National Security strategy. Not a serious political hay in reports from washington. This is the letter president elect. Joe biden has been waiting for giving him the federal resources he needs to begin putting his administration in place. Trump loyalists. Emily murphy had delayed for weeks, but monday in this letter, she says she decided on her own, not the biden was going to be president , but that he can start planning in case he is us president deltron tweeted out. He gave her permission to move forward, adding their own case strongly continues. We will keep up the good fight. But almost all of his legal cases have been quickly thrown out of court. I do think that he did have some interesting legal cases that he could have brought in a lot of these really close states in michigan and pennsylvania. But he didnt bring any of them his, his legal team resorting to these while, you know, theories of conspiracy. President trump is also losing momentum in the states on monday in michigan, the results were certified giving joe biden, that critical win. This letter means that biden can now actually plan to be president , but the most important thing is getting all the people who need to be approved to get soetoro approval to get security clearances. And there are spouses, and thats process has been stalled until now. So the fact that we now have an ability to g. S. A. To begin the process of doing all those clearances and getting all those processes, that means that the biden especially hope we hit the ground running on the afternoon of january 29th, the money will flow to the biden transition team, it will enable the team to have offices to have access to the federal agencies that they will be transitioning, the biden teen into officially on january 20th. So its a significant change. It basically means donald trump and his administration recognized that joe biden was the victor in this election. This is important because since the election, every signal from u. S. President donald trump and his team has been that he won the election, hes going to continue to live in the white. This is the 1st indication that he may be beginning to realize that he didnt come january 20th. He will no longer call this home aljazeera. You know, the white house, any suggestion of trump backing down was followed up by this tweets. He said. What does jesse being allowed to preliminarily work with the dems have to do with continuing to pursue on various cases of what will go down as the most corrupt election in american political history. And were moving at full speed ahead. If finished by saying, well never concede to fake ballots and dominion, which is a reference to the company which supplies vote counting machines and software. Lived out of our white house correspondent, kimberly how could is in washington. So kimberly, the president says hes going to continue the fight. Does he have ever any avenues left open to him . Well, there are certainly alvin used, but many believe that they will not be successful. In fact, that is the pattern for the legal challenges for donald trump thus far. And now donald trump, for his part, is heading into the thanksgiving holiday proceeding with the traditional activities of a u. S. President around this thanksgiving holiday. But at the same time, hes continuing to be active on twitter. In fact, he just tweeted in the last few moments, an article reach waiting, suggesting once again that a majority of us voters believe that this election was rigged or that it was full of fraud irregularities, we should point out. Twitter has flagged this as being verifiable. But the dot donald trump saying, are you listening republicans, its clear that he is planning to pursue these legal challenges. Even as we know, that effort has been mired in gaffes. It has been there has been staff changes and in many cases the cases have been thrown out because theyve been poorly crafted and have been ill prepared. But donald trump believes that this is something that is important to a large number of americans. And so even as he is now supporting the transition for the incoming biden harris team, he will continue to fight. So with this news, president elect biden will finally roll out his competent later today. What can we expect . Well, what we can expect, and weve already had a foreshadowing of this and its been well received. Are a number of people that are familiar faces in washington and also some historic changes. Don rather, joe biden suggest, suggested that he would have one of the most diverse cabinets ever, and certainly his list thus far signals that not only having a woman appointed to head up the director of national intelligence, but also the 1st latino to head up the department of Homeland Security and potentially also another woman for the 1st time to head up as treasury secretary. So this is significant, but also significant is the appointment of john kerry who is familiar. He is a former president ial candidate, of course, was active in the Obama Administration to leave a sort of position with regard to Climate Change. What this signals is, this is going to be a top priority. But what this also signals is that given the fact that so many of these names are establishment folks in washington and familiar in Foreign Policy circles that after 4 years of excitement and tweets, this may be less. So in fact, it should be predictable in terms of the transition, and this is an important signal, not only joe biden, signaling to the United States, but also the rest of the world. That he really wants to rebuild global alliances and give reassurance of prominence of the United States on the global stage. A white house correspondent, kimberly how could reporting live from washington . Many thanks indeed. Kimberly. Lets talk to thomas gift, who is a lecturer at University College london. And a visiting fellow at the London School of economics, United States center, he joins us by via skype from the. So tell us how the president still refuses to concede that hes given the go ahead to the General Services administration to designate joe biden as the a power and twit, whats the significance of that . Well i think that this is a Significant Development and it really reflects the fact that trumps Court Options are essentially being exhausted. Trump is still refusing to concede, and its entirely possible that he will continue to make unfounded allegations about voter fraud and irregularities. But trumps tweeted, did signal a willingness to proceed with the transition, which i think is in part a response to growing. Although not consensus, republican pressure. Its important because it really does allow the biden team to take the next step in this transition. Up until this point theyve been thinking about the cabinet picks, others who are going to be part of this new government. But they really havent had the access that they needed in order to do the nuts and bolts that are going to be required from day one. When joe biden takes the white house, so what does the transition process will . What is it all about . I mean that part of it, it involves access to funds. Why did, why do they need so much money . Well, they need to access to funds. They also need access to information, but more importantly, i think that they need legitimation of this president elect so that his people are able to start negotiating with congress, you know, starting on january 20th. When Joe Biden Takes Office there, going to be a number of challenges that are facing this new administration chief among them, trying to get a stimulus package. True, thats been very difficult so far because a lot of republicans have been reluctant to interact with joe bidens staff as a president elect. Now the fact that there is some Movement Toward recognition means that its more likely if some of those talks can get started. That means, you know, its better chance that some of these big important priorities that need to get done right from the beginning with coping with the stimulus package, etc, are able to start moving with refusing to concede when joe biden is sworn in january. Does that mean trump will not fade into the background that hes not going to go quietly that he could be a thorn in the bible and ministrations sides . Well, i think thats absolutely a concern. And, you know, trump whether you know, hes in the political realm. Im for the next 4 years or not is one thing, but kind of trump is and what he represents is certainly not going anywhere anytime soon. And in large part, thats because trump just has a considerable support still within the Republican Party. And if you look at his popularity, numbers within the g. O. P. Voters still remains extremely high. So the things that he represents a populist message, a bending of the truth, sometimes imploring fact and fiction shattering democratic norms. All of those things i think are probably going to be embraced somewhat by the Republican Party as it evolves as it goes forward. Even if new leaders take up the mantle, i think many will be hesitant to depart too sharply from some of the precedents that donald trump has established. Could still tell us many thanks to a telescope that from the London School of economics United States. And well show by the studio unveiled National Security team of expected cabinet nominees diverse in both race and gender. They include americas 1st female heads of intelligence and treasury, the 1st latino chief of Homeland Security, as well as several obama era officials, a state department correspondent, also in jordan reports ahead of tuesdays announcement of his cabinet members, president elect joe biden spoke briefly to reporters.

Foreign policy experts say it will take the us years to repair the damage caused by the current president , donald trump, whose america 1st Foreign Policy shredded relations with the European Union.

Experts say trumps Foreign Policy, ultimately undermined the u. S. His reputation overseas. You know, i think repairing and renewing america at home is critical. If were going to be model soft power influence. Countries want to work with us. The biggest challenge facing the new white house getting too comfortable. The only slight concern is that this team may convince itself that theyve got the right answer because they all sort of look at the world the same way. Theyve all been through a lot of the same experiences and theyre going to have to ask, how do we bring in fresh ideas . Some recommendations, finding ways to restart. Denuclearization talks with iran, young, updating, and improving the nuclear deal with han and keeping the afghan peace talks on track. No matter how long it takes.
