Michael Chertoff, DHS secretary under Bush, to me just now: "Because Donald Trump doesn't like the fact it was a secure election because he lost he’s acting out of personal vindictiveness. As far as I’m concerned this firing is a badge of honor for Chris Krebs." https://t.co/ZcoTBp3ckj

Drs. David Kessler and Vivek Murthy said it is urgent for the General Services Administration to officially “ascertain” the winner of the presidential election so that Biden’s team can access information about vaccine distribution and make recommendations about federal guidance.

This is false:

"A county board that fails to canvass within 14 days after the election must give all of its documentation to the Secretary of State's office and Board of State Canvassers" https://t.co/xxI7oyKucA

It's not just that the anti-mask, anti-distancing, anti-testing Republicans are wrong as a matter of public policy. It's not even that they lack empathy for those who suffer. They relish their lack of empathy. They glory in their callousness. They are proud of their inhumanity.

Some true genius here. Would potentially give Mitch McConnell two MORE Republican senators. https://t.co/1rAThfqmXj

Playbook this morning: Is Trump done being president?

DONALD TRUMP is out of public view, exacting revenge on his political enemies, ranting about a stolen election and risking allies on Capitol Hill, who are starting to concede that he has lost.

— Jake Sherman (@JakeSherman) November 18, 2020

— ON TUESDAY NIGHT, TRUMP congratulated the Wayne County, Mich., Board of Canvassers for failing “to certify the election results.” Hours later, they certified the election result.

— Jake Sherman (@JakeSherman) November 18, 2020

So basically anywhere where there's a heavy urban aka black presence get those votes invalidated/thrown out/not certified.

The racism isn't even a little bit subtle. https://t.co/NWlcHC8uDs

Hardly a day passes that Trump does not attempt to suppress evidence, as if all the world were in violation of an N.D.A. never to speak ill of him. https://t.co/SoMgniiRTu

NEW w/ @PaulaReidCBS: At today’s COVID task force meeting doctors told VP Pence the situation is dire and worsening. If nothing changes, there could be 2000 deaths/day by Christmas, overrunning hospitals.

Just remember: Mitch McConnell, Kevin McCarthy, and most Republicans in Congress are fully on board with this soon-to-be-unsuccessful but forever unforgivable attempt to steal an election.

A reminder that a lot of the complaints from Detroit were from a bunch of conservatives (mostly white people from the suburbs) who got voter fraud brain worms on Facebook, got like 10 mins of training, and didn’t know how anything worked. https://t.co/JryyuejH5U https://t.co/mpiMdtr9eQ
