Don’t worry. He’ll forget all about the pain in his foot as soon as gets the PBD and sees the amount of crap he’ll be inheriting.

At least.
Etch-a-sketch is the perfect metaphor for tRump’s brain. A slight movement and everything disappears.

Great. This adds to the things he started from Minute One of his Declared Victory on 7 November 2020.
I think those amounts are way too low.
I wonder it he’ll get a version tailored to him and Kamala or will he get the stripped down version they’ve developed for Donald. Hopefully they’ll add back all the intel on Russia that’s been pulled due to Donald’s fits of anger at seeing it.

Biden wasn’t in my top 5 choices for pres in the Dem field this year. However, it’s times like these where Biden’s oval office experience makes him ideally suited for the super rocky transition his administration is getting. Imagine a newbie getting his/her first intel briefing under these circumstances.

I guess he won’t need briefings on corona virus. It will all go away as soon as Trump is gone, since it was fake just to get Trump out of office.
Wholly shit it really taken off in Nov.!

Most likely Joe will understand more out of one briefing than Trump has managed to absorb in 4 years.

And on December 15th, after the Electoral College meets and makes Biden’s win official, what will be the GOP’s new excuse not to call him President-elect?
And after Biden is sworn in on Jan. 20th, will they dare call him Mr. President?

McConnell will just refuse to bring his nomination before committee. Sooner or later Democrats will realize McConnell is President.
Let us all take a pause to glory in the experience of actual facts coming to us about the President-elect’s health.
Last time that happened was sometime in 2016.

The President twisted his ankle. That’s so normal and so prosaic I want to die - it’s astonishingly normal.

The briefers are nervous. They haven’t done this for a while.

Are you kidding? Some of those agency briefers have been waiting for four years to talk about some of this stuff, in a secure way, to an audience that is intelligent enough (and non-traitorous enough) to care.

By the way, there’s a nice little history of the PDB here.

Biden is slated to receive his first presidential daily briefing on Monday
How come there’s no pages in the book?
After Putin and Barr redacted it, there was nothing left… except the title… sir.
Meaning, of course, that it will be the first time in almost 4 years that the executive has actually paid attention to the daily Presidential briefing.

I’m guessing that Biden will know some of the briefers.
The question is if crayon will work for him since he’s receiving the same brief as Mayo Mussolini.
Now, the picks … jettison the execrable Neera Tanden, and please spare us from Jeh Johnson and, I can’t believe we have to say this, Deval Patrick. If you want to move ahead, leave the neocon embeds behind.
