It also projects a sense that when the numbers do come in, that we need to move on as a nation and begin the transition to American leadership once again.

I'm still not going to exhale until it's officially called, but seeing this leads me to believe they know something we don't.

Serious faces, heads on a swivel. With things so tense, it's comforting to know they are on the job.

so Joe knows what he's doing and how to do it. Kamala must also be busy with transition activities. Trump is busy tweeting like a desperate lame duck loser.

Newsom can start interviewing candidates to appoint to the soon to be vacant US Senator position in California.

Nice to see them hit the ground running; they have a LOT ahead of them.

Discounting the "quality" of Drumpf's so-called "work" - ie at least attending a meeting or talking to someone - what do you want to bet that Joe will have more REAL work done in the month + between now and 21
