Washington State Police reported that a person was shot during clashes in Olympia between supporters and opponents of US President Donald Trump, while Trump continues to adhere to his victory and insist on the premise of rigging the elections.
The Washington Post reported that several people were stabbed during clashes between supporters of President Trump and opponents in Washington, DC, during a gathering at the invitation of the right-wing Proud Boys movement to protest the election results.
This came after Trump published a series of successive tweets on his Twitter account, commenting on the Supreme Court ruling rejecting the lawsuit to annul the results in 4 states.
Trump said the battle had only just begun, and that the Supreme Court had really let him down.
Trump is very frustrated, and
later Trump renewed his expression of dissatisfaction with the judges of the Supreme Court, because of their refusal to accept a lawsuit filed by the Attorney General in Texas, demanding the annulment of the election results in the states of Pennsylvania, Georgia, Michigan, and Wisconsin.
Trump said in an interview with Fox News broadcast on Sunday that he was very disappointed, accusing the Supreme Court judges of not having the courage to accept the case, even though his legal team had proven fraud, he said.
New lawsuit rejected
Meanwhile, a federal judge in Wisconsin rejected a lawsuit in which the Trump campaign demanded that Joe Biden's victory in the state be nullified.
In the rejected lawsuit, the campaign demanded that the judge order the Republican-controlled Legislative Council to appoint the major voters in the electoral college.
The ruling came as the state Supreme Court was hearing an appeal by the campaign to nullify a previous lower court ruling, which also dismissed a similar case by Trump's team.
Biden beat Trump in Wisconsin by more than 20,000 votes, widening the gap after the Trump campaign requested a recount.
On the other hand, Republican Senator Bill Cassidy said that the elections were not stolen from President Donald Trump in favor of President-elect Joe Biden, and that the recent Supreme Court ruling is evidence of this.
Cassidy confirmed in an interview with "Fox News" that the elections had ended, and that Trump recognized Biden's victory when he ordered the initiation of the power transfer procedures.
Michael Flynn: The courts don't decide who will be the next president
In his first public appearance since the US president issued a pardon, former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn defended Trump's accusations of election fraud.
In a speech to Trump supporters who demonstrated in Washington, Flynn said that it is not the courts that decide who will be the next president of the United States, but rather the people.
Biden's son summoned
On the other hand, the Associated Press quoted a source in the US Department of Justice, that the ministry issued a summons to Hunter Biden, son of President-elect Joe Biden, to demand documents regarding his relationship with about 20 entities, including the Ukrainian gas company Purisma.
And the agency considered that the summons shows the plaintiffs ’great interest in investigating the international financial and commercial transactions of the president-elect’s son.
Biden's transition team announced Wednesday in a statement that the US Attorney's Office in Delaware opened an investigation into Hunter Biden's tax record.
