Rally-goers gathering in Washington DC in support of Donald Trump’s unsubstantiated claims of election fraud have invaded the US president’s truck.
Trump greeted his supporters as he left the White House Saturday morning, heading to his golf club in Virginia for the 282nd game of his presidency.
It came the day after Trump seemed to get closer than ever by admitting defeat to Joe Biden in the presidential election.
On Friday, he called the election college result in Arizona “a very close loss,” before telling reporters at a coronavirus vaccine briefing, in his first public comments since Election Day, that ” time will tell “if your administration is replaced by a Biden. one.
A cap on the White House has been called, so we will not see the president again today.
Needless to say, he’s still active on Twitter.

Dominion Voting Systems Statement
Donald Trump has again raised an unfounded conspiracy theory about election security and Dominion Voting Systems.
The company issued a statement Friday against the allegations.
You can read it in its entirety here, but Dominion claims the voter fraud conspiracies are 100% bogus.
The US Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has debunked numerous claims, including claims about the existence of a secret CIA vote fraud program called Hammer and Scorecard.
The company also investigates the specific charges of the president.
Claims that 941,000 votes were removed for President Trump in Pennsylvania are impossible, as Dominion only serves 14 Commonwealth counties. Together, these counties produced 1.3 million votes, representing a voter turnout of 76%. Fifty-two percent of those votes went for President Trump, which equates to 676,000 votes that the company’s system processed for the president in Pennsylvania.

Trump Tweets a Message of Support to Rally Attendees
The president has tweeted a message of support to the protesters on the streets of Washington, DC, having now returned from his golf game.
“People are not going to tolerate a private company from the radical left, Dominion, and many other reasons, stealing this election from them,” he wrote, referring to the discredited conspiracy theory regarding Dominion Voting Systems.
“We will win!” added.
Trump retweeted images posted by Dan Scavino, his social media director. He wasn’t as optimistic about the size of the crowd as his press secretary had been earlier in the day.
He called the election “rigged and corrupt.”

The Proud Boys arrived at the MAGA rally in front of the Supreme Court
Marissa J Lang from The Washington Post reports:
The Proud Boys arrived at the Supreme Court rally, as police rushed to arrest them. After I took this, the officers cleared the entire area on the other side of the fence opposite where the Proud Boys and supporters had gathered.
In a later tweet, you can hear some of the speeches that are being made.
Fragments of speeches that occur near the SCOTUS steps continue to float over the crowd. “This is not a democracy,” I just heard a speaker say. “It is a republic of states.”
