There was some controversy over that news, as Moore worked on President Joe Biden's transition team and served as a 'nomination advisor for engagement' to Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson.

Black Lives Matter, Moore and Elias Law Firm have all either declined or not responded to requests for comment.
The first instance of Cullors holding extracurricular activities at the mansion saw her hold a party to toast Joe Biden and Kamala Harris's inauguration as president and vice president in January 2021.
Then, in March the same year, she commandeered the luxury property - whose purchase has sparked fury among other racial justice campaigners - for her school-aged son's birthday party.
