CNNW Erin Burnett OutFront December 9, 2020

Devastating blow to trumps request to overturn the results of a free, fair democratic election that he lost. This is the order for the Supreme Court. One line, one terse lie to deny republican efforts to block the certification of pennsylvanias president ial Election Results. So let me read you the entire Supreme Court decision. The application for relief presented to Justice Alito and by him referred to the court is denied. So he didnt just respond, right . Referred to the court by him a whole court, not a single dissent included in this decision, not a single one. The president so far silent. Today he retweeted this image. She is the latest justice on the Supreme Court. He had her with lasers coming out of her eyes and brought up the court at an event today about coronavirus. We were rewarded with a victory. Now lets soo whether or not somebody has the courage, whether its a legislator or legislatures or whether its a justice of the Supreme Court, lets see if they have the courage to do what Everybody Knows is right . The Supreme Court did what is right . If you call it rurnlg, rigcourad the right thing. Lets be clear. The talk from a democratic fairly defeated president today is dangerous. Were going to have to see who the next administration is. Because we won. And the swing states and there was terrible things that went on. So well have to see who the next administration is. The next administration is the joe biden administration. 223 of and 223 of 249 are calling joe biden president. Theyre rejecting a resolution that would have declared biden the president elect. Were out front live outside the white house tonight. Is there any sign that team trump is going to admit the president lost . I mean this is a crushing defeat. This is something, you know, they have referred directly to Justice Alito. This is a defeat. Yes. You have to see what the president s reaction is going to be. You cant argue that this court stacked against him given so many of his appointees are on this Supreme Court. We have not heard from the president directly yet. We have heard from his attorney own statement but no official statements from the campaign. But it is the latest blow to the efforts to try to kind of thwart this or mud i didnt thidy the. Theyre focusing on a Public Relations aspect. Theyre not successful in court anywhere. Theyve seen a string of court losses. It was filed by Pennsylvania Republicans. He wants anyone to have courage to help him in his efforts to undermine democracy which is what hes doing by trying to change the results of this election. And so you can see the president s effort theres are not being successful in court. And so they continue to push this in this public way. It actually is affecting day to day governing that president is doing. Earlier today he was saying this administration we dont know what the next administration is going to be. He hopes it will be a trump administration. That was a vaccine summit where no one from the Biden Transition Team had been invited to attend. That the president was asked to explain and justify why given that biden is going to be inaugurated in a few weeks. They will be taking over the Distribution Plan when it comes to vaccines. Of course, the president is instead continuing on with these efforts despite everyone else rebuffing the president at least in a legal and sense of that, maybe not from republican lawmakers that of course he has not won this election despite how many times he tries to claim that he did. Thats right, he lost. Lets go to the president elect biden in wilmington, delaware. So this is a Supreme Court decision, you know, coming terse, one line, you know, no signatures indicating it is from the court as a whole. What is president elect biden saying about it . It is a crushing defeat but one of a string of defeat thats the biden transition and campaign has watched happen over the last month or so. So they really have been taking these seriously to the disagree to which they had layers watching all the cases. This has been over in their view for a long time. It is another nail in this argument. A biden Spokesman Says this this election is over. Joe biden won. He will be sworn in as president in january. Period. That is the point here. This election is over. So the biden Team Moving Forward this is not really a big day in their moment. Theyre trying to get their hands around the virus and things and theyre dealing with all these as they come. They know its over and they have 43 days to take over a dramatic challenge with the coronavirus. All right. John, thank you very much. I want to go to laurens tribe, constitutional law professor at Harvard Law School and members of al gores legal team. Let me get your opinion on this decision. This is addressed to Justice Alito. It came out a terse single line. Not a single known dissent. It seems as though the Supreme Court with one voice has taken a stand here, right . Thats exactly right. Mr. Trump, you have lost. 90 with all of your appointees agreeing. Its over. You have to move on. We have important work to do with the coronavirus and with national security, the biden team is on track. You have lost. Stop undermining democracy, mr. President. Youre not going to get anywhere with these efforts to overturn the election and to engineer a coup. You are a loser. So professor, as recently as this afternoon, today, we saw the retweet of Amy Coney Barretts eyes that he sweeted out and saying well this would be taken care of by congress or the Supreme Court if they had the courage. He was confident of a win in part because he has hand picked three of the justices. But that is clearly not ow this turned out. And those justices did what was p lawyers, after all. Theyre politicians in robes. Donald trump seems to think if he appoints someone, he has them by the throat. Wrong, mr. President. They follow the law. I dont always disagree. I often disagree with their view of the law. There is no room for zrement here. This disagreement here. There is no conceivable basis for this ludicrous motion to overturn the pennsylvania election and steal the right to vote from the pennsylvania electorate. This is absolutely predictable. I predicted it. I dont claim any special cla knowledge here. The one terse line is very clear. They want to make it clear. I want to point out that it comes on the same day as, you know, what they call the safe harbor day. The deadline for states to certify their Election Results before the Electoral College meets. You have all the certifications. How final does this make things . This is it. Today is happy safe harbor day. Its the dha is specified by congress by which if states resolve their internal disputes, their electoral slates cannot be challenged in the joint session of congress that meets january 6th. Its an important day. It goes back to a law passed by congress in 1887 and it was relied on by of all things the u. S. Supreme court to decide bush v. Gore and they said its over, folks. I didnt like it then because i thought it was not properly applied. But what was clear is that the court was envoeking the applicable federal law that says when its over, its over. And its over. And so this is the talk out there now. I will give you a chance to make this clear. The attorney general of texas filed a lawsuit today to try to validate the Election Results in four key swing states. This is coming out of texas. But theyre suing four other states. The a. G. Claiming they used the pandemic to illegally change their election rules. Is there any merit in such a thing coming out of texas about other states . Texas is the state that suppose lid believes in states sovereignty and now its going after the states of not only the upper midwest but, gosh, georgia, the old south. Its claiming that it has a right to tell the other states how to count their electoral votes. Its ridiculous theyre comparing it to a border dispute and invoking the applicable jurisdiction of the Supreme Court. This is the most absurd lawsuit i have seen in many years. Its not going anywhere. Much its not going to merit any more than a one line dismissal by the United States Supreme Court and that is exactly what it will get. Irony knows no shame. Professor, thank you very much for your time. Thank you. I want to go now to senior Congressional Correspondent now. We talk about this defeat for trump in the Supreme Court. And, you know, i pointed out it was the judicial branch. You have the courage to do what congress has not. Republicans still refusing to admit biden is president elect. They simply stated that fact. So what now . You get this ruling from the Supreme Court. Does this even give some of these people cover to say it is means is . At this point it does not appear that way. I spent the day talking to a number of republicans about whether they even accept mondays vote in which the Electoral College votes to essentially declare that joe biden here is the winner. Something clear for weeks. I asked whether or not the president should concede at that point or consider joe biden president elect. They will not say. Because he continued to move forward with this fruitless fight and they dont want to anger the president. Joanie erns of iowa that won her race and wouldnt say if the president should concede. Neither with marco rubio. The Senate Judiciary committee and close ally of this president. And when i had a chance to ask Mitch Mcconnell the Senate Republican leader who in two weeks referred to the new administration coming in whether he its considers biden president elect now or on monday he side stepped the question. The new administration coming in, are you willing to acknowledge that joe biden is the president elect . Will do you so on monday . This is become a weekly ritual. The Electoral College is going to meet on the 14th. And cast a vote. Were going to have a swearing in of the next president. On the 20th of january. Why dont we concentrate on what we have to do the next two weeks . So the big question is what will happen come monday when that vote occurs, when joe biden moves over to 270 electoral votes, something thats been, of course, clear here. Will they at that point break with this president . As you know, the president is not showing any signs of dropping this fight even though he has virtually no chance of succeeding and some house conservatives are pushing him to take this to the house floor in january 6th when the joint session of congress essentially counts those votes from each state. Some urging to actually have a debate and open a fight over the electoral results that are coming from the states. What will leaders like Mitch Mcconnell do if the president refuses to concede . Theyre not saying yet even though all see the writing on the wall privately and publicly a different story. Thank you very much. Next, president elect joe biden with a plan to open the nations schools amid the pandemic. My team will work to see that a majority of our schools can be open by the end of my first 100 days. Plus, trump lashing out at a republican Lieutenant Governor calling him a republican in name only and too dumb or corrupt to recognize massive evidence of fraud. Georgia Lieutenant Governor jeff duncan responds. And a lawmaker calls out giulianis voter claims and now she is receiving Death Threats like this one. You need to be run out of office and hung from a. [ beep ] tree. That lawmaker is out front. Tonight. Ill be eating roasted cauliflower tacos with spicy chipotle sauce. [doorbell chimes] thank you. [puck scores] oooow yeah i wasnt ready you want cheese to go with that whine . . When your underarmso your are cared for . It shows our new dove advanced care formula is effective. And kind to skin, leaving underarms cared for and you. More confident and carefree. And ask your doctor about biktarvy. Biktarvy is a complete, onepill, onceaday treatment used for hiv in certain adults. Its not a cure, but with one small pill, biktarvy fights hiv to help you get to and stay undetectable. Thats when the amount of virus is so low it cannot be measured by a lab test. Research shows people who take hiv treatment every day and get to and stay undetectable can no longer transmit hiv through sex. Serious side effects can occur, including kidney problems and kidney failure. Rare, lifethreatening side effects include a buildup of lactic acid and liver problems. Do not take biktarvy if you take dofetilide or rifampin. Tell your doctor about all the medicines and supplements you take, if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or if you have kidney or liver problems, including hepatitis. If you have hepatitis b, do not stop taking biktarvy without talking to your doctor. Common side effects were diarrhea, nausea, and headache. If youre living with hiv, keep loving who you are. And ask your doctor if biktarvy is right for you. And other Money Managers dont understand why. Because our way works great for us but not for your clients. Thats why were a fiduciary, obligated to put clients first. So, what do you provide . Cookie cutter portfolios . Nope. We tailor portfolios to our clients needs.

We are farmers. Bumpadum, bumbumbumbum tonchts nigh tonight, biden and Trump Holding starkly different covid19 messages. We need your help. Wear masks for just 100 days. This team this team will help get the latest at the last 100 million covid19 vaccines, at least 100 million covid19 vaccine shots into the arms of the American People. Well look to have the most schools open that we can possibly in 100 days. Were in a very dark winter. Things may well get worse before they get better. The president had a vaccine signing and for him there were no warnings like that. It was all about declaring victory today. Were here to discuss a Monumental National achievement. Nobody thought this was possible. Nobody thought it was even remotely possible to do what weve done in nine months. Something not even thinkable. And we took a lot of heat when we said this is our goal. You got to point there. Did he push vaccines and while every company in every great scientific mind on this planet was moving at warp speed, no matter what, President Trump was vocal. He pushed and he deserves credit for. That but heres the thing. If president elect President Trump wants to own the good, then he has to own the bad. And the bad is a pandemic that is still out of control. According to a memo from the president s own task force tonight, the administrations current vaccination plans wont, substantially reduce virus spread, hospitalizationors fatalities until the 100 million americans with covid19 can be fully immunized which will take into late spring. As 2,000 americans die today, yesterday, and will sadly tomorrow. The death toll rising toward 300,000 americans and get trump and his team wont push things like masks which even doctors behind the vaccine say are more effective than a vaccine. So president trum weaponp with left can save lives now. Out front now, three of the nations experts on this pandemic. Thank you all for joining us. Professor, let me start with you. Late spring. It may be realistic. It is later than many regular people are banking on. And, you know, many people are thinking, look, get through the holidays and january. Things will be a lot better. This is not that time line. Thats correct. Its not. And its a very realistic time line. It takes a while for the vaccines to get rolled out. It takes a while for them to get administers and tad a while to take infect. In the meantime, there is a light at the end of the tunnel that is a very long tunnel and very dark, especially at the beginning in the next few months. We can expect to see increasing numbers of infections and increasing deaths until and until we do something to stop it which is what you recommended. Masks, social distancing. I would like to see a lot more tests being able to be done at home. There are tests that are developed. They could be used and i would like to see more testing added to that mix so people know theyre infected and thou protect those around them. Doctor, in september you told me 80 of the deaths from coronavirus could have been prevent philadelphia we did basic Health Measures that other countries did that include masks. Yet even now President Trump does not back the basics. At aa rally in georgia, he dro
