Trump team's fake claims about Dominion have spurred stalking and death threats, the firm's CEO says. "The lies and smears have no basis in fact but they do real damage to our democracy by casting doubt on the legitimacy of the electoral process." https://t.co/Ukyi3YwTeB — PolitiTweet.org

Republicans in the Senate will try to reject some of Biden’s nominees. But the president-elect's team is just as worried about opposition from Democrats. ⁦@shearm⁩ ⁦@jmartNYT⁩ https://t.co/SSKL7IHKvw — PolitiTweet.org

in the end, the system stood firm because of a Republican city clerk in Michigan, a Republican secretary of state in Georgia, a Republican county supervisor in Arizona and Republican-appointed judges in Pennsylvania and elsewhere. ⁦@michpoligal⁩ https://t.co/1BCXktDDKZ — PolitiTweet.org

After four years of Thanksgiving debates, differences over Trump in some families have mutated into something deeper—a divide over basic facts and visions for America’s future, a rift even harder to mend amid his election conspiracies. ⁦@stavernise⁩ https://t.co/dLXxYTEJsv — PolitiTweet.org

In May, a Trump ambassador gave the WHO a list of conditions for the US to remain a member. Hours later, before negotiations could begin, Trump pulled out, undercutting his own administration. ⁦@mattapuzzo⁩ ⁦@noahweiland⁩ ⁦@selamgkidan⁩ https://t.co/Yo06Ofbkim — PolitiTweet.org

Biden, a state-college alum who was once the poorest man in the Senate, faces GOP accusations of elitism after defeating a billionaire incumbent with an Ivy League degree—a sign of how the politics of populism have been upended by Trump. ⁦@ToluseO⁩ https://t.co/vLOAYrN8wB — PolitiTweet.org

Saudi's MBS pulled back from a deal with Israel largely because of the US election, reluctant to take the step now when he could use a deal later to help cement relations with Biden. ⁦@summer_said⁩ ⁦@stephenkalin⁩ ⁦@DionNissenbaum⁩ https://t.co/Nj11xZ2CH4 — PolitiTweet.org

If Biden picks Austin for Defense, that would be one Trump norm-busting that his successor followed. By law, the defense secretary cannot be a current or recently retired military officer, a rule exempted for the first time since the 1950s when Trump tapped Mattis. — PolitiTweet.org
