White House: Trump Team Still Hasn’t Signed Transition Docs

Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said Jeff Zients, Biden’s chief of staff, has “consistently reiterated” a desire to work on ensuring a “smooth” transition of power.

Looks like fascist governments like the US and Hungary will be welcoming wanted war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu whereas non-fascist ones might arrest him. I guess it’s a good way to know whether you live in a fascist country or not.
