Biden’s Cabinet Takes Shape As Trump Clears Way For Transfer Of Power

Ever since with the unofficial declaration of the US presidential elections, President Donald Trump has been alleging voter fraud but on Monday he conceded election defeat in a signal. He has now acknowledged it was time for US General Service of Administration to begin the process of transferring power to Biden administration. Trump has said to “do what needs to be done”.

After this, the GSA Administrator Emily Murphy has written a letter to Joe Biden and invited him to join the process of transfer of power.

With the Republican administration's permission to take further action and work with the Joe Biden administration, it is clear that Trump is now being hopeless.

...fight, and I believe we will prevail! Nevertheless, in the best interest of our Country, I am recommending that Emily and her team do what needs to be done with regard to initial protocols, and have told my team to do the same.

However, he once again refused to give up. He said, “our case strongly continues, we will keep up the good fight, and I believe we will prevail!”

Meanwhile, President-elect Joe Biden has announced the faces of his cabinet.

Today, I’m announcing the first members of my national security and foreign policy team. They will rally the world to take on our challenges like no other—challenges that no one nation can face alone.
