Much better than crying in your beer and allowing for the beyond obvious communist takeover that is currently happening to our country.
Kash Patel, a Trump loyalist who was connected to efforts to spread conspiracy theories about Joe Biden, has been put in charge of the Pentagon transition effort and will oversee coordination with the incoming Biden-Harris administration, according to two US defense officials.
During the first years of the Trump administration, Patel was a national security aide for the House Intelligence Committee under Nunes. He was also the key author of the controversial Nunes memo which was central to the Republican narrative that FBI and Department of Justice (DOJ) officials inappropriately obtained FISA warrants for several of Trump campaign staffers, including Carter Page (petroleum industry consultant and a former foreign-policy adviser to Trump). His name surfaced in the Trump–Ukraine scandal; a scandal involving efforts by Trump to coerce Ukraine and other foreign countries into providing damaging narratives about Joe Biden as well as misinformation relating to Russian interference in the 2016 United States elections.

SCOTUS will rule on the former. Get familiar with Contingent Election. It’s coming.
Yep...
Honestly, that is one thing I'm a little nervous about. I can't imagine it happening, but what if there are enough RINOs to still throw the election to Bidden?
What’s most important to note is that in a contingent election, the House doesn’t cast its votes in the same way that it would decide on legislation. Instead, each state delegation must cast its vote en bloc, with each state receiving just a single vote, allotted to the candidate who receives majority support in the delegation. In order to be elected, then, a candidate must receive an absolute majority of state-delegation votes, which, given the 50 U.S. states, means he must receive the votes of 26 state delegations. (Despite having a delegate and three votes in the Electoral College, the District of Columbia does not get a vote.)
This is where things get really interesting: Although the Democratic Party currently holds a majority in the House, with 232 representatives to the Republican Party’s 198, the Republicans hold a majority of state delegations. In the current makeup of the House, there is a Republican majority in the delegations from 27 states. Of course, the composition of those delegations is subject to change in the coming election, and the newly elected House would be the one to settle the presidential election in the event of a tie.
