I'm sure there's no criminality attached to the law. It's up to Congress. Mainly the Senate refusing to confirm anyone who has not been vetted by the FBI is the only way I can see of forcing anything. Do not see that happening in the Republican controlled Senate.
Typical idiot democraps... pass laws, refuse to enforce them, and whine when the criminals ignore them because they never face any accountability for any of their crimes.
The law was passed bipartisanly. It is the responsibility of ALL elected officials to uphold the law. Typical idiot comment blaming Democrats for not upholding laws that are the responsibility of both parties.
I certainly did NOT vote for the Deranged Sweet Potato. I also don't accuse people of taking actions with no evidence. Seems the MAGA mindset is not limited to MAGA.
That comment was not directed at you but at Rakesh Malik. I agree wholeheartedly with your comment. Upholding the law is most certainly the responsibility of both parties.
Ya as if any republican obeyed any laws or rules any way !! Except even the republicans are voting with the Democrats on any of trumps very poor choices ! His only plan is to destroy, like Putin asked him to do !!!
He owns him. Except his usefulness is coming to a close as a pawn .. his drug addictions are wrecking his body.
The senior Republicans are fighting back ..some of them !
And if the Senate grew a spine and refused to confirm people, I see Trump just singlehandedly "appointing them" via the magic mind meld he used to declassify the classified documents in his bathroom - and just name them as "acting" secretaries of whatever. He sort of did that last time when he couldn't get folks cleared.
Though the Republicans control the Senate, it may be a legal requirement for anyone expected to hold the office of presidency to do, and not an option that can be treated lightly, mainly for security reasons. Did Trump sign the first time he took office?
Also, when the dumbshit is sworn in as President with his hand on the Bible, swearing to uphold the Constitution, you know he is lying; that is perjury and treason, punishable by either 2, 3, or 4 years in prison. I looked it up on a Gov.org website
A recount for one. Take an executive action because he hasn’t signed the documents allowing them to gain access to classified information, he hasn’t disclosed his taxes or any health records. He’s a threat to our safety and they have an oath to protect us from threats to our safety etc.
Enforcing laws is the purview of the executive branch.
Biden's administration has been extremely soft on justice. But he's a pathetic coward, so he won't do anything because of his idiotic focus on norms and traditions that have become completely meaningless thanks to democraps' long history of cowardly complicity with the criminals.
Please watch Tom Hartman's podcast Titled "Data Scientist shocking call for a recount". This podcast in informative and logical. Please watch and pass around ,let's get the word out. I will personally call Kamala to tell her she must allow this professional to do the recount, if only in the swing states. Thank you.
If he doesn’t follow the law how can he be seated? The Hatch Act and the Logan act were flouted MANY times but there was never any mechanism for punishment….. seem to me if he doesn’t do these things he shouldn’t be allowed to take office…
I've said Trump was the antichrist from day 2 and while I don't profess to be a Christian I have read their book. My husband, the Lutheran, agrees with me.
You're right, that's usually part of the on-boarding process, signing agreements, agreeing to company rules and policy, etc. You don't sign, you don't get the job. It should be the same standard for the presidency at least if not higher, but alas...
Trump had four years of planning. He is using Hungary’s playbook to steal power. It’s all a set up. I wouldn’t have put it past them to rig the voting.
I STILL feel that the votes were rigged. When has Trump EVER been popular? He walked around spouting gibberish and acting out of it far more this time than the first time he ran and he wasn't even popular then. He was always between 30 to 45 % in the approval ratings and that was strictly his base. NOW, with all of his convictions and going up against Biden who saved our economy and Harris who had so much more to offer us, was far more intelligent, knew the law and economics AND was actually popular, they expect us to believe such a massive loss wasn't somehow rigged?!
Elon Musk has been stuck to him like glue lately. Maybe he did something to help Trump win in such a huge way that his win wouldn't be questioned. Maybe Musk is now looking for his quid pro quo.
This is not legal! Our judicial system has been far too lenient with Trump already and if this is allowed I'll feel sure that we have no judicial system, at least as it applies to the worst offenders who are free to endanger our country and its citizens which others are punished for things far less serious.
I believe President Biden would be on solid legal ground if he ordered background checks on Trump's nominees based on keeping the United States safe from enemies both foreign and domestic -
Joe should stop playing nice with the elected criminal in thief. Joe has immunity and can just say that since trump and his thugs are not following the law that he will not turn over power to him. Why don't dems ever play hardball? Do something that the trump thugs don't expect and have the FBI do background checks regardless. Who is the boss for the next 2 months? Dems need to fight like gofs or get eaten by them.
MPT, 💯🎯..... exactly!! I've been saying for years, the Democrats need to play hardball damnit!!!! This is the critical point in time where the gloves MUST come off! No more "show a good example" bullshit, fight fire WITH fire! Beat those mofo's at their own game. 🤬
If they refuse to sign those documents then they should never be allowed anywhere near the White House. Trump should not be getting any briefings of any kind because we know he can't keep his mouth shut. Somebody has to stand up and make this man toe the line for once before he takes office and ruins everything and destroys this country. Please would somebody with a backbone stand up to him
Isn't that enough of a reason to disqualify him from the Presidentcy?
Don't I wish!
I'm sure there's no criminality attached to the law. It's up to Congress. Mainly the Senate refusing to confirm anyone who has not been vetted by the FBI is the only way I can see of forcing anything. Do not see that happening in the Republican controlled Senate.
Well, write or call your senators daily. They need to know we are watching. Just do it.
Yep. I wrote mine last week
Typical idiot democraps... pass laws, refuse to enforce them, and whine when the criminals ignore them because they never face any accountability for any of their crimes.
This was passed with bipartisan support. Go to X with your name-calling and lack of info. They enjoy it there.
Amen!
Another MAGA STAR are we???? You probably get your information from a cereal box
and I just reported him too
As have I.
Ditto. Don't know how much good it will do, though. He did get in here somehow. I thought there was a vetting process.
The law was passed bipartisanly. It is the responsibility of ALL elected officials to uphold the law. Typical idiot comment blaming Democrats for not upholding laws that are the responsibility of both parties.
The idiots are the people who voted trump back in office. They will soon see their folly and probably still blame democrats.
Seems you are one of the idiots. You can’t fix stupid.
I certainly did NOT vote for the Deranged Sweet Potato. I also don't accuse people of taking actions with no evidence. Seems the MAGA mindset is not limited to MAGA.
Sorry Jami
That comment was not directed at you but at Rakesh Malik. I agree wholeheartedly with your comment. Upholding the law is most certainly the responsibility of both parties.

Huh...I guess we'll see. I have no confidence in anyone with an R next to their name.
Wow. So bipartisan passed law, Trump refuses to obey it, and it's the Dems' fault. Interesting.
Not only was it done with bipartisan support, it was done 61 years ago. Most of those who were involved are now dead.
Much as I dislike your sneering tone, I think you have a point. Come on Democrats, show some soune
Democracy depends on the willingness of the population to support its laws. If he wasn't a traitor, the situation would not have arisen.
And if the Senate grew a spine and refused to confirm people, I see Trump just singlehandedly "appointing them" via the magic mind meld he used to declassify the classified documents in his bathroom - and just name them as "acting" secretaries of whatever.

True. No he did not sign the first round.
Lol that is so yesterday...
Also, when the dumbshit is sworn in as President with his hand on the Bible, swearing to uphold the Constitution, you know he is lying; that is perjury and treason, punishable by either 2, 3, or 4 years in prison. I looked it up on a Gov.org website
U would think
They should not be allowed to take office!
Please write to Biden and or Harris! I did.
https://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/
I did! Thanks for posting the link.
I just did too.
Awesome!
just did, thank you for the info
Thank you for the link much appreciated
You’re very welcome!
Thanks for sharing this link. I just wrote in as well.
What can they do?
A recount for one. Take an executive action because he hasn’t signed the documents allowing them to gain access to classified information, he hasn’t disclosed his taxes or any health records. He’s a threat to our safety and they have an oath to protect us from threats to our safety etc.
In other words: we just need Biden to do his job.
Enforcing laws is the purview of the executive branch.
Biden's administration has been extremely soft on justice. But he's a pathetic coward, so he won't do anything because of his idiotic focus on norms and traditions that have become completely meaningless thanks to democraps' long history of cowardly complicity with the criminals.
Instead of protecting us and the Constitution, he's mouthing platitudes about "the peaceful transfer of power". As if this is just business as usual.
Please watch Tom Hartman's podcast Titled "Data Scientist shocking call for a recount". This podcast in informative and logical. Please watch and pass around ,let's get the word out.

We can not let this so called man in the highest level of Government. He has to be treated like a little boy.
That's right because he IS a little boy [emotionally ETC.]
He's got the emotional maturity of a toddler (sorry, actual toddlers).
They can make it public! The Democrats seem to have communication problems.
Medias should not be the ONLY source of this information.
People need to know!
Is that a possibility -- to keep Trump out of the WH / not inaugurating him?
I asked them to do a recount, that’s the only thing I think that can change the outcome.
If he’s supposed to sign 6 months before swearing in then just postpone his inauguration to 6 months after he signs it. Simple 🤷🏻♀️
I.e. enforce the damned law.
He's supposed to sign 6 months before the election.
Apparently only applies to everyone else. Ugh!!!
If he doesn’t follow the law how can he be seated? The Hatch Act and the Logan act were flouted MANY times but there was never any mechanism for punishment….. seem to me if he doesn’t do these things he shouldn’t be allowed to take office…
Legally he can't take office anyway.
My sentiments exactly.
WHY ISN’T THIS DISQUALIFYING?
Sounds right for this administration. Why would Trump ever do anything that’s required. No taxes, no medical report & no required security of staff.
The best part of donald trump ran down his mother's leg. And I'm not the only one who says that.
I've said Trump was the antichrist from day 2 and while I don't profess to be a Christian I have read their book. My husband, the Lutheran, agrees with me.
OMG 😯😯 You made my day .🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
His father should have followed the advice of antiwar activists: pull out NOW!
🤣🤣🤣🤣👏👏
Perfect!!! 🤣😆 Love it! So true.
Anyway... he belongs in prison, not the White House.
If he doesn't sign those, he shouldn't be allowed to take office. If I get a job and they ask me to do paperwork I don't get a job until I do
True. But…
If you’re a rapist, you go to jail
If you commit fraud, you go to jail
If you incite an insurrection, you go to jail
If you steal government top secret documents, you go to jail
If you share government top secret information with adversaries, you go to jail
Not Trump. Rules and laws only apply to us.
Not if you're a "rapist" of someone with no actual proof and can't even remember the year it happened.
Oh but the accuser was a woman so that makes the man guilty until proven innocent.
And p.s. that was a civil case not criminal.
You're right, that's usually part of the on-boarding process, signing agreements, agreeing to company rules and policy, etc. You don't sign, you don't get the job. It should be the same standard for the presidency at least if not higher, but alas...
He has a plan. We are being set up
Who has a plan?
Trump had four years of planning. He is using Hungary’s playbook to steal power. It’s all a set up. I wouldn’t have put it past them to rig the voting.
I STILL feel that the votes were rigged. When has Trump EVER been popular? He walked around spouting gibberish and acting out of it far more this time than the first time he ran and he wasn't even popular then.

I can feel it in my bones that they rigged it. But Biden is doing nothing.
Frank Figliuzzi wrote about this recently- I recommend his article. He says President Biden can order these backgrounds checks himself under the authority of the current MOU (memo of understanding). See https://frankfigliuzzi.com/biden-should-order-background-checks-of-trumps-cabinet-picks/
Then Biden damn well should! And while he’s at it, pardon Hunter.
If TFG can do it, the Biden should do it. There are no norms, no playing by the rules with these MAGAs.
Lynn, yes!! He should pardon Hunter!! Too bad if people don't like it, what are they going to do??? Nothing! Pardon your son Joe!!!!!
Exactly 💯 👏👏👏👏 I have been saying the same thing for months now!!
So, we should flood the WH with demands they take action!!
I shared a link to contact them. I’ve written to both Biden and Harris, everyone needs to get involved!
This is not legal! Our judicial system has been far too lenient with Trump already and if this is allowed I'll feel sure that we have no judicial system, at least as it applies to the worst offenders who are free to endanger our country and its citizens which others are punished for things far less serious.
I believe President Biden would be on solid legal ground if he ordered background checks on Trump's nominees based on keeping the United States safe from enemies both foreign and domestic -
It would absolutely be considered an official act and would be covered under the recently SCOTUS issued immunity clause.
A plan to do nefarious things would be the ONLY reason to not sign. How simple is that to understand, right?
So, we also know mainstream media won't cover any of his shenanigans...only how we block them if we can.
MEDIA is the key. TRUTH is the key.
Mel Brooks...springtime for Hit-ler...cute song.

Umfortuately, dems play patty cake and republicans play gladiator.
Can’t breach an Agreement if you don’t sign it.
If they refuse to sign those documents then they should never be allowed anywhere near the White House. Trump should not be getting any briefings of any kind because we know he can't keep his mouth shut. Somebody has to stand up and make this man toe the line for once before he takes office and ruins everything and destroys this country. Please would somebody with a backbone stand up to him
These comments need to be made to the WH. Nobody here has any authority to act.
I get that. I'm allowed to vent too you know?
