Today, president elect biden is meeting with his transition advisers and preparing to take office on january 20th. The team is forced to reach out on their own to governors and Health Experts and private sector to prepare since the Trump Administration is refusing to begin the transmission process. Trump is set to speak any minute from the rose garden. These will be the residents first public remarks since president elect biden was declared the winner of the 2020 election almost a full week ago. Trump has, so far, refused to acknowledge his electoral loss in any way at all, though the writing has been on the wall for quite sometime now. More news of finality in recent hours with pennsylvania announcing bidens margin of victory is way too big to trigger an automatic recount. A law firm representing the Trump Campaign in pennsylvania has withdrawn representation. A judge in michigan rejected a republican lawsuit to toss out votes in detroit. The trump dropped its lawsuit in arizona. The Trump Campaign shut off its voter fraud hotline. Yet, President Trump and his advisers are still spewing lies about Homeland Security officials are calling the most secure election in American History. Today, trade adviser Peter Navarro and Kayleigh Mcenany are the latest to spread this big lie saying the president not the only one in the building willing to accept the results of the democratic process. President trump will definitely attend the inauguration . I think the president will attend his own inauguration. He would have to be there, in fact. We are moving forward here at the white house under the assumption there will be a second trump term. Now is it delusion . Is it dishonesty . Frankly, it doesnt really matter the motivation any more. All that it matters its false and destructive. A Senior Administration official tells meal the trump team is discussing whether President Trump should go out and hold rallies right now. It comes as the Trump Campaigns options to try to delay this inevitable result are running out. As Cnns Kaitlan Collins reports. Reporter today, President Trump will speak in fronts of cameras for the first time in over a week for what the white house says is an update on the administrations covid19 initiative. The appearance comes as President Trump and senior government officials are still denying the results of the election, including his top trade adviser. We are moving forward here at the white house under the assumption there will be a second trump term. Reporter featuPeter Navarrot the one aide to recognize bi bidens win. It would look pretty bad if he did not attend inauguration . Look like sour grapes, wouldnt it . Well, i think the president will attend his own inauguration. He would have to be there, in fact. You really think you can turn this around . Absolutely. Reporter mcenany and pomp pam owe are ignoring that biden has won. In arizona, the lawsuit was dropped saying it wouldnt have made a difference that 200 votes were at stake and biden leads trump in the state by 11,000. The law firm representing Trumps Campaign in pennsylvania also withdrew from the long shot case today as firms carrying out trumps legal challenges are now coming under public pressure. Even the president s own department of Homeland Security is rejecting his claim this election was rigged. Security Officials Say the 2020 race was actually the most secure election in American History and there is no evidence that any Voting System deleted or lost votes changed votes or was in any way compromised. Despite all of that, trump has refused to concede the race as his allies are pushing him to do that including Geraldo Rivera of fox news saying he spoke to the president today. He told me he was a realist and do the right thing. Every impression he gave me, harris, if the process went against him and he was satisfied that every vote legitimate vote had been counted and every legitimate vote had been thrown out that he would follow the of the constitution. I got no impression that he was, you know, plauapplauding the overthrow of the elected government. Reporter on top of all that, jake, we have been reporting the president is potentially on the verge of firing the cia director. We have learned today that is going on on whether or not to terminate have been happening, an intelligence briefing was held at the white house this afternoon with President Trump, the director of national intelligence, John Ratcliffe and other Senior Intelligence officials but gene a haspel was not invited to that briefing. It is not mandatory for her to be there but not a good sign whether she is in this job much longer. This comes as the president is about to be here at the rose garden. Only the second time he has addressed reporters since he lost the election to joe biden and has not taken questions from reporters so we will see if he does that today. The Trump Administration continues to block the Biden Harris Team to federal agencies and funds. Ron klain says the delayed transition could hamper the Coronavirus Vaccine preparations as cnns jessica dean now reports. Reporter president elect joe biden spendi ining today at his delaware beach house meeting with transition advisers taking what advisers describe as his notorious notoriously deliberative approach. During a virtual briefing, bidens Transition Team offering assurances that the transition process is moving ahead as they continue to wait for the General Services administration to trigger the official transition process. We are not interested in having a food fight with the gsa administrator or anyone really. We just want to get access to intelligence information to threat assessments, to the ongoing work on covid so we can prepare to govern. Reporter the team confirmed they have been in contact with specific representatives from a number of agencies. We have been in regular contact with federal career officials who are tasked with administering transition who are nonpartisan career experts on transitions, including at gsa. Aides say biden has contenders in mind for nearly all of the cabinet positions but they are trying to be deliberate, as one former senior obama official advising the biden transition told cnn, quote, there is no room for any embarrassments. In the meantime, in his first interview since biden named him chief of staff, ron klain said thursday night biden will issue a National Mask mandate on his first day in office and install a white house covid coordinator. He will have a covid coordinator who works in the white house who has direct access to him and will be briefing him daily and, otherwise, as needed on the response to the covid crisis. Reporter klain also confirmed biden has not spoken with Senate Majority leader Mitch Mcconnell who has refused to publicly acknowledge biden as president elect. There will a time and place for joe biden and senator mcconnell to talk. Reporter we are learning from new reporting from our colleagues that the biden team is reaching out to former pentagon officials who worked under james mattis to get the lay of the land from them. They are locked out from talking to any Current Pentagon official so they figured former was the next best thing. We are told they are just looking for information here. Jessica dean in wilmington, thank you. To discuss this is congresswoman jackie spears who heads the intelligence committee. Congrats to your reelection, congresswoman. Thank you, jake. President trump is about to speak for the First Time Since president elect joe biden was declared the winner of the election. What would you like to hear from the outgoing president . I would like the outgoing president to be president ial, to concede the election, to allow the transition to move forward. Its until the best interest of the American People. Our National Security is at risk the longer he pursues this fantasy that he is engaged in about trying to overturn the election results. A few minutes ago, he tweeted part of this tin foil hat Conspiracy Theory that the Election Software somehow is responsible for why he didnt win. Its been debunked by no less than his own Cyber Security czar at the department of Homeland Security. So its not just that he is not going to be president ial in all likelihood, its that he is spreading this misinformation to tens of millions of his followers. Well, its true. And what we do know what happened in the end when you have 5 million more votes than president elect biden has received, no way he is gcket able to overcome that kind of a margin. When jill stein in wisconsin called for a recount when then president elect trump had 23,000 votes and we now have biden having 20,000 votes when she called for a recount only 131 votes that changed hands. Unfortunately he is on poor loser. What we know is 30 odd days that transpired before bush was called the victor in 2000 was somewhat responsible for the fact it took six months for him to get the clearances on his staff and actually contributed to our lack of ability to anticipate 9 11. Thats what the 9 11 commission said. The 9 11 Commission Report found the delayed transition between president clinton and president george w. Bush hampered to put them in place before the 9 11 attacks. Are you worried that Something Like that could happen again . Well, im worried about that. Im worried about the fact that our embassy in iraq attacked numerous times and diplomats are at risk and concerned about the diplomats in cuba and elsewhere who have had brain damage of some sort that we have not been able to ascertain what caused it or who was responsible for it, although we have some speculation. All of those are going on around the world and our adversaries looking at this circus going on here in the United States. I can assure you that putin is getting the last laugh mehere because this is precisely what he wants to see happen. Have you talked to your colleagues who do not acknowledge the election . Its short list of officials in washington who acknowledged what happened last unique, the idea that president elect is president elect biden. Congressman conway and kensinger have. Have you asked any what is going on . This isnt good for the country. No, i havent, jake, and that is probably a good idea. I think ill get on the phone later today and try to get a sense. What ill probably here from them they realize that joe biden is now the president elect but we want to give the president more room to come to the grips he has lost. This is treating the presidency like youve got a Mental Health issue at stake here and that we have got to be careful with this fragile ego that is in the white house. Its time for the president to put his big man pants on and inspect the fact that he has lost. Ive said its like they are coddling a 5yearold whose pet turtle tied. A great number of representatives who wont acknowledge the president elects election. What do you think it will take to get that to happen to president elect biden is uptospeed so he can protect the country when he takes office a january 20th . Senator langford, who i served with in the house, has said that if it didnt happen on friday, he would do something. He then somehow recanted it a little bit. That is the fear that so many of these republican senators have. Up with, because they have got two senate seats that are up in georgia in january and they want President Trump to be able to rally the forces there. The other is they are always concerned about their own skin. Its whether or not the president will come out and attack them as an outing president. He still will have 70 Million People that he will try to rally around him and others. Its all about selfpreservation. Meanwhile, we have a country at risk here and we owe our allegiance to the constitution, not to President Trump who has lost the election. Not no mention, of course, the coronavirus pandemic which is getting worse every day. Thank you for your time. We are waiting for President Trump to come out in the rose garden and speak at any moment. His first public remarks since the election was called for joe biden by every major media organization.
