Nice mix of people. It’s a shame they won’t be allowed to do their jobs unless and until Team Biden files a lawsuit seeking emergency injunctive relief.
It is also worth noting that every one of these transition advisors will be doing so as volunteers.
Safe to say that nobody was dragged into it against their will, but a handful of them are on the Transition’s payroll if you’re really getting at whether they’re being paid.
