WASHINGTON, D.C. (WKEF/WRGT) -- The Acting Secretary of Defense, Christopher C. Miller, released a statement about the situation at the U.S. Capitol.

“Chairman Milley and I just spoke separately with the Vice President and with Speaker Pelosi, Leader McConnell, Senator Schumer and Representative Hoyer about the situation at the U.S. Capitol. We have fully activated the D.C. National Guard to assist federal and local law enforcement as they work to peacefully address the situation. We are prepared to provide additional support as necessary and appropriate as requested by local authorities. Our people are sworn to defend the constitution and our democratic form of government and they will act accordingly.”

Re: U.S Election 2020

The account was locked for 12 hours so he can remove three tweets, if he does not, it will remain locked.

The counting resumed with fewer objections this time. The Deputy National Security Advisor has resigned as well, a few more might come today.

Re: U.S Election 2020

I think Trump has had a psychological breakdown, a meltdown. He believes that much that he won, he is living his own reality - When it is so obvious he has not. His own cabinet is considering the 25th Amendment against him. Can it be possible that in the next phase of Trumps presidency, he leaves office before 20th Jan and the 46th President of the United States, could actually be Mike Pence, for just over a week?

The way forward now is to invite Biden to the White House, shake hands or touch elbows because of Covid, and allow the peaceful transfer of power and bow out. Even if by some miracle he gets to remain president, which it’s impossible, the fact he’s now lost the Senate, he’d never get his policies through. When you got despots in Syria, what is he called, Assad and in Venezuela, Madura clinging on to power, they have not got safety mechanisms, separation of powers, a Constitution that it is explicit.

The Founding Fathers in America made it this way, separate powers, so no one body has sole power.

it's easy to enter, but there is loads of security and armed officers, it's not like walking into you local library.

BREAKING: President Trump has finally conceded he’s lost the Election.

Quote:

Donald Trump has said there will be an "orderly transition" after the US Congress certified Joe Biden's win in the presidential election.

"Even though I totally disagree with the outcome of the election, and the facts bear me out, nevertheless there will be an orderly transition on January 20th," the president said in a statement, posted on Twitter by a White House spokesman.

"I have always said we would continue our fight to ensure that only legal votes were counted.

"While this represents the end of the greatest first term in presidential history, it's only the beginning of our fight to Make America Great Again!"

He can kiss goodbye to Trump 2024! What will happen to the campaign donations? Will he refund people?

Re: U.S Election 2020

Let's see how he acts over the next couple of weeks. I imagine his staff have pressed him into this but when he gets in front of a camera without that filter he can change his tune.
