Transition Team Member List - BallotPedia

It's a very lengthy, comprehensive, categorized list - includes so many of our "favorite" right wingers who are in and out of government.

So many, can't even start listing.
Go there - great reference for arming for the battle.

Excuse if previously posted somewhere - did not come up in a search. Worth repeating anyway.

readership that has a lot of conservatives, always but especially these days, some of them deeply entrenched at the top of society. It also has people who love their jobs far too much and are anxious to remain in DC by staying safe in the middle of the crowd and nurturing their connections.

I sometimes see evaluations that say Politico leans slightly left and wonder just how they reached that conclusion. Merely raising a topic they don't want discussed is often taken as leaning left for many conservatives (many canceled decades-long National Geographic subscriptions after climate change coverage made them "realize" it was left wing), but for honest analysts it's how a validly raised topic is addressed that determines. Politico is not left leaning, and by my observation articles can frequently have a right-wing bias.

Ballotpedia cited sources for every entry on the transition team list in that right hand column.

The column entries are live links. Click and go to the article or document Ballotpedia is citing as verification of the person being included on the list.

By the way, it is very simple to copy and paste this entire list directly into a spreadsheet. I did that right away in case someone causes the page to disappear.

there might be a lot of one way tickets to Moscow. Edward Snowden might have some company in the Kremlin.

I wish Steve McGarrett was here to say: "Book 'em, Dano!"

heh heh heh...

Seriously, you could be asked to list off every trump stooge who could be implicated by this, and just answer, "everyone you've heard of. Even some you haven't heard of".

They wanted to be at the table as the meat came off the bone of the US government. I wonder if they learned how to be so greedy at the Dump's University.

Kind of like the sadam husseign hit list the bushies liked to play with?

It's interesting that muehler only subpoenaed 9 email accounts. There are 15 people in the "leadership", but 5 of those are sitting in congress, so he may have not included them to get around separation of power issues (or they may not have been dumb enough to use a ptc.gov email account).

But why only 9 accounts when so many names were working in some capacity?

If he only wanted 12 he knew exactly which ones he needed to prove something. If anyone said anything even remotely incriminating the web that all these emails made is probably enough to catch all of them in it
