Trump releases video repeating debunked election fraud claims

Al Jazeera  

In a 46-minute speech from the White House posted to social media, Donald Trump accused Democrats of ‘stealing’ the US election. Trump’s own US Attorney General William Barr said after asking the Justice Department and the FBI to look into fraud claims that fraud does not exist “on a scale that could have effected a different outcome in the election”. Trump’s video was flagged as “disputed” on Twitter and tagged with a label on Facebook that states “Joe Biden is the projected winner” of the election. But they don’t like that,” Trump told the group, adding: “I call it a rigged election, and I always will.” As Trump continues rallying his supporters around the idea that the election was illegitimate, Republicans in Georgia, where there are two runoff elections on January 5 that will determine which party controls the US Senate, are growing concerned that Trump voters there will not turn out to vote next month. Attorneys Sidney Powell, who briefly worked on Trump’s post-election legal team, and Lin Wood held a rally on Wednesday where they not only demanded voters boycott the runoffs, but called for Georgia’s Republican Governor Brian Kemp to be jailed, accusing him of being complicit in the alleged “fraud”.
