If Pfizer puts in an emergency use authorization and requests approval of the vaccine soon, if that goes along smoothly, doses could be given to people before the end of the year, Fauci says. pic.twitter.com/HshW5Djokg
"Take it one step at a time. Does it really work as effectively in older people who’s immune system isn’t quite as strong? We don’t know anything about pregnant women yet … we have lots to learn,” Dr. William Schaffner says of Pfizer’s new trial data. https://t.co/FMkXGDVVpt

– Trump has not conceded
– McConnell has given permission to GOP leaders & voters to join his (false!) claims of fraudulent voting
– GOP GA senate candidates are campaigning on electoral illegitimacy
– The DOJ is now juking norms to find extra ballots to throw out https://t.co/484FC3zx3U
Trump has refused to concede the election and instead is pushing a narrative of widespread voter fraud committed by Democrats without providing evidence. https://t.co/mriBunEOb6

It's just bizarre to say, "We want to count every legal vote" when your primary election strategy is to disenfranchise legal voters

This could be true. I do think Mitch’s involvement is, however, about power — maintaining his power by keeping Trump’s base engaged — and the use of government to do so is disconcerting and harmful to democracy regardless of the Trump camp’s motives. https://t.co/bW0CsO9Hu7

I assume part of what’s going on is that Trump has to keep his brand as a “fighter“ so that when he finally steps down he can claim that he never gave up and then he can get right back to fleecing the rubes.
