      Fox News Sunday anchor Chris Wallace interrupted Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar mid-interview on Sunday to remind the Trump Cabinet official that Joe Biden is in fact the president-elect, and should no longer be referred to by his previous title of “vice president.” Mr Azar was downplaying the significance of Mr Biden announcing he will publicly advocate for all Americans to wear masks in the early days of his presidency, saying the Trump administration has been promoting mask-wearing for months to stop the spread of the coronavirus pandemic. “We welcome Vice President Biden to the club,” Mr Azar said .

      Letters to the Editor: Trump blew his chance to be regarded as something other than a failure

      To the editor: As the COVID-19 pandemic surges to a climax that dominates the remaining weeks of his presidency, Donald Trump's behavior has become increasingly egregious as he perpetuates a leadership vacuum with a country that is essentially on a war footing. President Trump might have been able to salvage his reputation by ending his term with a show of leadership and interest with regard to vaccines. Instead, Trump has been completely disconnected from the reality of an out-of-control pandemic and is consumed with the futility of overturning the election, ensuring that as Jan. 20 approaches, his scarred legacy becomes increasingly more embedded.

      Newborn Boys Were Dumped in Chicago Trash 17 Years Ago. Cops Just Cracked the Case.

      Seventeen years ago, a Waste Management employee was emptying trash bins in Cook County's Stickney Township when she found a pair of newborn twins. The infants were dead, and their umbilical cords were still attached, according to Chicago Tribune reporting at the time. On Saturday, however, the Cook County Sheriff's Office announced a breakthrough: They'd charged the infants' mother, Antoinette Briley, with two counts of first-degree murder.

      What 'safe harbor day' is and why it's bad news for Trump

      States that haven't yet certified their votes for president or that face legal challenges are rushing to resolve any remaining disputes by Tuesday, known as safe harbor day. Under federal law, Congress must count the electoral votes from states that act by Dec. 8 to choose their presidential electors — the people who meet next week in each state to cast the actual votes for president — and to resolve any remaining legal disputes over the choice. Under the law, Congress must count the electoral votes from states that chose their electors and resolve any legal disputes over the choice by the act's deadline, which is six days before the electors meet to vote.

      Rudy Giuliani described a Michigan court ruling about a local marijuana measure as a "big win" for President Donald Trump's campaign. A judge in Antrim County on Friday ordered that ballots be preserved from 22 tabulation machines after a voter argued that damaged ballots might've caused a village marijuana proposal to win by a single vote, the Detroit Free Press reported.

      Israel's latest actions against Iran have left regime hardliners furious and demanding revenge on Israeli or Jewish sites around the world. In the past year alone, the US and Israel have killed Iran's top military commander, top ally in Iraq, and — most recently — top nuclear scientist. European and Israeli security officials are now preparing for an imminent attack by Iran on their people and agencies, with Israel sending notes of warning to citizens abroad, and European officials heightening surveillance on Jewish sites.

      Trump fails to deliver on his promise of 300 million vaccines in 2020

      President Donald Trump will reportedly fall far shorter than the “several hundred million” doses of Covid-19 vaccines he suggested would be made available to the American public before the New Year from the White House. In a seemingly premature celebratory event in the Rose Garden in May, the administration touted its Operation Warp Speed, created in response to the pandemic as part of an effort to ramp up vaccine production and build a pathway to immediate nationwide distribution. In that event, the leader of the initiative, pharmaceutical executive Moncef Slaoui, spoke alongside the president and said he had “very recently seen early data from a clinical trial with a coronavirus vaccine, and these data made me feel even more confident that we will be able to deliver a few hundred million doses of vaccine by the end of 2020.”
