Washington, and with that, welcome to americas news headquarters, im leland are visit earth. Kristin and im kristin fisher. The president also signaled that he has no intention of conceding even as the president ial transition moves ahead. David spunt joins us live at the white house where the just returned from camp david. Reporter hey, kristin. The president said pointblank about the election that his mind will not change in six months, so for his supporters, for those close to the president hoping that maybe he might concede, that he he might accept joe biden as the next president of the United States when he gets sworn in on january 20th, there is your answer when he says that his mind will not be made up in six months. Now, he doubled, tripled, even quadrupled down on his claims that the election was fraudulent, though no indication that is the case. Joe biden is the President Elect. He took 306 electoral votes. The president 232, the same spread, actually, that trump and secretar
you re back, we re back, everybody s back, and this august, so was the edinburgh festival, the world famous celebration of the arts that takes over the city the whole month. it s a melting pot of theatre, music, dance and opera, and on the side, as its name suggests, is the edinburgh fringe. she s like, please never speak to me again . laughter filled with experimental performers, innovative shows and my favourite comedy. one of the beautiful things about the fringe is that it takes over loads of venues in the city, including this one the university of edinburgh s old medical school. and before we get stuck in to the comedy, we are going to talk about medicine specifically medical waiting times. now, if you re waiting for surgery, it can feel like an eternity and we all know that waiting times are longer than anyone would want. but one nhs trust in england is trialling an artificial intelligence that might be able to manage waiting lists better and, ultimately, bring
at the barrel of a gun. russians have orchestrated sham referendum votes in four occupied regions in ukraine. plus, calling trump s bluff. the former president and his lawyers publicly suggested the fbi planted evidence at mar-a-lago. now the trump appointed or approved special master is daring them to make that claim in court. we begin at the white house. notably this is a political venue for president biden s speech moments from now. what are we expecting to hear from the president? this is all part of the amped up political activity we ve seen from president biden as he is anticipating and describing what he believes will be a very tight midterm election campaign. that is why the president is using these types of political events to, one, try to tout some of the legislative accomplishments his white house has achieved, things like infrastructure, bipartisan agreements when it comes to guns and also the recently passed inflation reduction act which touches economic, clima
