President-elect Donald Trump still has not signed legal documents – including an ethics pledge - needed to formally begin his administration’s transition of power. Candidates usually file these documents well in advance of the election. As a result of this delay, the government cannot provide security clearances, briefings and resources to Trump’s incoming team before he is sworn into office on January 20th.

Associated Press: Group: N.C. request for redistricting rehearing ‘frivolous’
Hilary Klein, an attorney for Common Cause, wrote that the rehearing petition is “frivolous.” She referred specifically to House Speaker Tim Moore’s public statement that another look at the cases was needed because the “people of North Carolina sent a message election day” to reject the ruling of the “outgoing (judicial) majority.”
The petition “is therefore motivated by improper purpose and grossly lacking in the requirements of propriety,” Klein wrote.

Plain Dealer/Cleveland.com: Corporate jets, bribes and dark money: Householder trial spotlights weaknesses in Ohio ethics laws
Catherine Turcer, executive director of the good-government group Common Cause Ohio, said it’s “astonishing” that lawmakers have yet to take up any reforms in response to the Householder scandal.
“It’s clear to me that the people in power like the structure that we have right now, and that they’re benefitting from the lack of transparency,” Turcer said. ...
Turcer said there’s a public interest in limiting lawmakers’ and other politicians’ ability to accept trips on private jets.

Salon: “Groyper” guru Nick Fuentes returns to Twitter (briefly): Hateful content keeps flowing
Yosef Getachew, a media and democracy program director at Common Cause, said allowing a blatantly bigoted and disruptive user like Fuentes back on Twitter sends a clear signal that the platform is failing to enforce its own policies, he added.
"You're creating an environment where users may feel threatened, harassed or attacked, or you could be inciting others to engage in offline violence," Getachew said. "That's essentially how the [Jan. 6] insurrection started, given that millions of users were exposed to harmful content and...

Irresponsible Greed Drives Facebook to Restore Trump’s Account
Facebook has once again missed the opportunity to be the adult in the room when it comes to checking the clear and present danger that Donald Trump poses to the nation on social media. Instead, the company and its founder Mark Zuckerberg decided to try to plunge headlong into a race to the bottom with Elon Musk and Twitter, irrespective of the threat to public safety and national security.

Pennsylvania Capital-Star: Looking to solve a Harrisburg problem, Pa. House Speaker Rozzi turns to Pittsburgh for advice
Khalif Ali, executive director of the good government group Common Cause Pennsylvania, told Rozzi his organization is concerned about the way legislators have attempted to use amendments to the state constitution.
“The constitutional amendment process was never meant to be used as a means to advance vetoed and failed legislation, or to punish the court for decisions that weren’t favorable to a party’s agenda,” Ali said.
He pointed to Senate Bill 106, a multi-pronged constitutional amendment package,...

Tampa Bay Times: Tampa election first locally to test new absentee ballot law
“Tampa is a huge city. A major city and it’s one of the first (to deal with the new law),” said Amy Keith, program director for Common Cause Florida, a branch of the national voting rights and government accountability organization.
The extra step required to request a mail ballot for each election makes accessing a ballot harder, especially for the disabled, elderly, working poor and other groups, Keith said.
“It makes it harder to participate, for people to have their voice heard and have a say,” Keith...

Texas Tribune/Houston Chronicle: Two years after Texas’ voting rights showdown gripped the nation, lawmakers again push dozens of elections bills
“Looking back over the past few legislative sessions, there have been repeated attempts to find creative ways to prosecute people for what really looks like an honest mistake,” said Anthony Gutierrez, executive director of Common Cause Texas, a nonpartisan organization that advocates for policies such as online voting registration and ending gerrymandering. “There’s no infrastructure to tell people what the process is for when you can vote again [after release from prison] or how you can vote again.”

트럼프의 소셜 미디어 위험은 1월 6일 이후로 줄어들지 않았습니다.
소셜 미디어 플랫폼에서 도널드 트럼프의 계정을 복구하고 허위 정보, 증오 표현, 현실 세계의 폭력 가능성을 더욱 확산시키는 것은 위험할 정도로 무책임한 일입니다. 전 대통령은 1월 6일 소셜 미디어에서 명백하고 현존하는 위험임을 증명했습니다. 사실 그 악명 높은 날보다 훨씬 앞서서요. 그는 트위터, 페이스북, 그리고 다른 플랫폼을 활용하여 그날 국회의사당을 습격한 폭도들을 모아 선동했고, 그 결과 비극적이고 치명적인 결과를 초래했습니다.
