House Republicans: Biden isn't president-elect because we say he isn't

By Donna Provencher -November 17, 2020 9:45 AM



Continued stonewalling could have devastating effects, experts say.

Pete Sessions, the incoming congressman for Texas's 17th District, took to Facebook Monday to make a very important — albeit false — announcement: President-elect Joe Biden isn't actually president-elect.

"Former Vice-President Biden is not the President-Elect," wrote Sessions, who previously served in the House for more than two decades before losing his reelection fight in 2018. "In case you were wondering."

Accompanying his statement he attached a letter that has spread like wildfire across Republican spheres on social media. The letter is written to Emily Murphy, administrator of of the General Services Administration, from Rep. Jody Hice (R-GA), ranking member of the Subcommittee on Government Operations.

In it, Hice tells Murphy, a Trump appointee who has famously blocked the Biden team from beginning the transition process, that while she may provide "government-funded transition assistance," but that said assistance "can only occur after there are 'apparent successful candidates for the office of the President and Vice President.'"
