Wall Street Predators Demand on ‘Peaceful Transition’ to Biden White House, Hands Off Electors

Jan. 5 , 2021 (EIRNS)—Making its ownership of Joe Biden glaringly clear, a cabal of Wall Street financial predators, grouped in the Partnership for New York City, issued a letter yesterday urging a “smooth transition” of power for Biden, the Wall Street Journal reported today. There’s no reason to contest his electors when Congress meets on Jan. 6, they insisted.

Coyly described as a non-profit that represents New York City’s business leaders and large employers, the group includes such model citizens as BlackRock CEO Larry Fink, CEOs of the Deloitte auditors, JetBlue Airways, Pfizer, Microsoft, Lazard Ltd., Estée Lauder, Carlyle Group, and other Fortune 500 companies, “as well as New York-based financial services firms and prominent law firms.”

Their letter demands Congress certify Biden’s vote tomorrow, warning that “attempts to thwart or delay this process run counter to the essential tenets of our democracy. Our duly elected leaders deserve the respect and bipartisan support of all Americans at a moment when we are dealing with the worst health and economic crisis in modern history.”
