Joe Biden calls for shared sacrifice to fight the pandemic as Trump rails about baseless election accusations

November 26, 2020

I know you will now have a truly fantastic Thanksgiving!” Trump tweeted. While Trump praised his attorneys and allies for their “tremendous service to our country,” Biden praised front-line health-care workers “who have risked their lives . Virtually everyone on Earth has accepted that truth, except for Donald Trump and Rudy Giuliani,” said Kate Bedingfield, a spokeswoman for the Biden-Harris transition team. Since Monday night, the transition team has made contact or met with more than 50 federal agencies and commissions and held more than 30 virtual briefings, Bedingfield said. The process of background checks for political appointees has begun, and some members of the transition team have started to receive government-issued laptops.
