The republicans have doubled down on their claims of u. S. Election fraud but with little extra details of their claims is what the White House Press secretary had to say about the Democratic Party and their response to the election they have taken a Global Pandemic and turned it into a nationwide electoral epidemic they have taken based on what they call a Natural Disaster if you use that and turn this into a National Disaster and fisher joins us live from washington d. C. Do the republican claims hold water. We still got to see evidence that thats the issue that theyve had since they started making these claims they have got anecdotal evidence theyve got hear see evidence but they havent produced any hard evidence that they could take to a court for example in the valley they say theyve got 3000 names of people who voted in nevada but moved out of the state no thats not on usual there are many military families in the voter who might have been moved but had registered to vote in the vida there are students who may live in nevada but suddenly decided that they wanted to go to college in New Hampshire but decided that they would vote by mail in their home state so all of these anomalies have to be cleared up its interesting the fox news one of the big channels that donald trump spends a lot of time watching and tends to be in favor of donald trump they cut away from that News Conference because they said they couldnt keep carrying it live because they werent getting any hard evidence or not is going to be the issue theyre talking a lot about how poll watchers in philadelphia where given access to the room thats been tested in court in one case already so theyve got to produce new evidence for a judge to take that on of course the intention is that theyll move all this as a process they say to the courts 1st of all theyre gathering affidavits they will then take it to the court if the court rules against them they can try and appeal that but at some point theyre hoping that this goes all the way to the Supreme Court the problem theyve got with that as well is the Supreme Court doesnt automatically take a court case they could say well the lower courts have unanimously decided on this or the lower courts have looked at this and we dont think theres anything constitutionally that needs to be examined here therefore we are not touching it but what is clear is that the republicans are saying this election isnt over donald trump has every right to challenge in court some of the problems that they believe exist absolutely right and he is going to continue to do that for some considerable time so dont exist. Beckham to make a concession speech in the next few days because its clear also from his twitter feed in the last couple of hours that he thinks the states that theyre disputed could still be flipped just one example of that he said georgia was a big problem will be a big president ial win just like it was an election that hes clearly believing that he can overturn the totals that hes seeing at the moment which give joe biden a lead in many of these states and when you mentioned his twitter feed that was the way he announced that he was sacking his defense secretary tell us more about that and and what significant. Of course hes done it before Rex Tillerson his 1st secretary of state was fired by twitter marcus for on his way or the door as well we have told that he got a call from chief of staff mark meadows to let him know that this announcement was coming via twitter. Dont trump and marcus for have been at odds since the summer even though donald trump used to call mark mark yes but because he believed that the defense secretary was always willing to please the president but there was a fallout over a couple of important issues when there was the big campaign to rename a lot of the u. S. Bases named after conservative generals markets for said they would look at that as a possibility donald trump didnt like that and then of course during the protests donald trump talked about putting troops on the street to quell some of those protests marcus 1st said that simply wasnt going to happen dont trump said that he could have used the insurrection act and markets but would have had to follow up with that and put troops on the street but mark a spark very much against that idea so since then there has been tension between the 2 of them we were told last week the markets for had pretty prepared a letter of resignation expecting to get the call sometime after the election that was immediately dismissed by the pentagon and said that marcus but still retain the president s confidence and here we are less than a week after the election and mark is on his way i know were being told as well that there are a couple of other people that donald trump doesnt believe dont believe is doing their jobs notably Christopher Reeve who is the head of the f. B. I. And also the head of the cia so we should probably checking their twitter feed religiously over the next few hours our official thank you very much indeed.

S. But the pandemic shows no signs of abating with hungry in portugal the latest countries in europe to reimpose strict measures the assembly did have one reason to celebrate the victory of joe biden means the u. S. Will be reestablishing its relationship with the w. H. O. Of the trouble for me began withdrawing in july the funding the u. S. Brings is key as the organization revealed although the worlds expectations of the w. H. O. Have grown dramatically the budget hasnt. Well this is the number of corona virus infections in the us passes 10000000 and the virus continues to spread unchecked in many states president elect joe biden has made dealing with the outbreak his 1st major priority assembling a task force of scientists and medical professionals i will spare no effort to turn this pandemic around once were sworn in january 20th to get our kids back to School Safely our business is growing and our economy running full speed again and again to prove the manufactured and distributed as quickly as possible to as Many Americans to as Many Americans as possible free of charge will follow the science. Joins us live from wilmington delaware for President Joe Biden focusing on how hell tackle the pandemic even though theres been no concession yet from the president. Indeed i mean he came out sets essentially the plan for how he wishes to make this his priority as soon as he is sworn in as president hes named cochairs for a covert task force including the former chief service surgeon of the United States who was initially appointed by barack obama and then was relieved of his duty shortly after donald trump became president what he said is obviously that whilst this is a great breakthrough this possible vaccine that seems to be close close. Seems to be very close the best way forward for everybody right now wants to where our mascot was the breast protection is something that he will definitely try and implement as far as possible when he gets into power obviously 10000000 people in the United States as one in 5 globally who have called the virus being in the United States it was a major election issue what hes trying to do essentially is highlights how he will take a different approach then President Trump and so far it seems to be received being received very well by the American Public and briefly how difficult is it to kind of transition in the in the current circumstances. Well its proving quite tricky because the buy didnt seem has asked for the General Services administration the head of its true essentially trigger the process that would allow for the Transition Team to begin this is a Government Entity the head of which is a political appointee so was appointed by donald trump shes refused to do that and what thats doing is essentially means that money thats would otherwise be made available to the biden team to start traveling setting up offices doing studies trying to essentially put blueprints together so that they can start implementing those policies as soon as they get into office those millions of dollars arent being made available to the president this is only the 2nd time i understand that this has happened the 1st time was in 2000 when there was the. Controversy surrounding the florida votes between bush and al gore so this is it is an unprecedented but its not something that happens frequently bidens team will be sure to push on this because they believe that over a lot of work needs to be done in order to be able to deal with this pandemic as soon as things as soon as theyre sworn in on the other side politically speaking it seems that there is still a lot of support amongst the senators for republican senators at least for donald trump the head of the Senate Mitch Mcconnell came out and said that he was still very much in support of donald trump so those 2 things are proving to be hurdles in the way of the Transition Team right now and thank you very much.
