I said it in a reply, but I'll say it again: fire the FEC chair.

He doesn't think that VP Harris can have President Biden's campaign funds and that it's "really complicated."

Well, fire the motherfucker.

1. Cite Seila Law LLC v. Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and Myers v. United States, and fire him.
2. Appoint a never-Trumper Republican interim.
3. Nominate a replacement after the election.

Sorry for all the errors and edits. I got fired up and posted too quickly.

A federal law confirms this, stating, "Any campaign depository designated by the principal campaign committee of a political party's candidate for President shall be the campaign depository for that political party's candidate for the office of Vice President."

Send a clear message to the rest of the commission that this ratfuckery will not be tolerated.

And the applicable law clearly says that what's available to the president is also available to the vice president.

No idea what this clown thinks he's talking about, but he's wrong.
