President Donald Trump is calling the 2020 presidential election “the most corrupt election in American political history.”
“What does GSA being allowed to preliminarily work with the Dems have to do with continuing to pursue our various cases on what will go down as the most corrupt election in American political history?” Trump tweeted late Monday.
He continued, “We are moving full speed ahead. Will never concede to fake ballots [and] ‘Dominion’.”
Twitter flagged Trump’s tweet, “This claim about election fraud is disputed.” It links to a source that notes officials at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security have said there is “no evidence that any voting system deleted or lost votes, changed votes, or was in any way compromised.”
Trump’s campaign has made claims that Dominion Voting Systems machines changed votes from Trump to Biden, to which the spokesperson told Fox News, “Well, it’s physically impossible.”

Earlier Monday evening, the president said on Twitter that “in the best interest of our Country, I am recommending that Emily and her team do what needs to be done with regard to initial protocols, and have told my team to do the same.”
He also wrote, “Our case STRONGLY continues, we will keep up the good fight, and I believe we will prevail!”

Government Services Administration (GSA) Administrator Emily Murphy made the decision on Monday to let President-elect Joe Biden begin the transition process, as IJR reported. She said the transition would begin “independently, based on the law and available facts.”
After noting the decision does not officially declare Biden the winner, she said in a letter to Biden’s team, “I have determined that you may access the post-election resources and services described in Section 3 of the Act upon request.”
“To be clear, I did not receive any direction to delay my determination. I did, however, receive threats online, by phone, and by mail directed at my safety, my family, my staff, and even my pets in an effort to coerce me into making this decision prematurely,” she wrote.
Murphy later added, “The actual winner of the presidential election will be determined by the electoral process detailed in the Constitution.”
Trump has refused to concede, and his legal team said on Monday it will continue to combat the “election fraud around the country as we fight to count all the legal votes” following Michigan certifying Biden as the winner in the state. The president has continued to make unsubstantiated voter fraud claims.
Biden is however pressing forward with building his team following the Trump administration’s green light for the transition.
