Georgia Senators Still Won’t Recognize Biden’s Win

Reuters reports:

Georgia’s GOP senators are refusing to acknowledge Joe Biden as president-elect a day after Electoral College voters met to cast their ballots and officially name him the winner over President Trump. But Sen. Kelly Loeffler (R-Ga.) on Tuesday tweeted that she would keep fighting for Trump, and otherwise did not acknowledge the Electoral College vote.

Georgia senators aren’t the only ones facing pressure from Trump loyalists. The president’s supporters flocked to Washington over the weekend for their second mass rally in the capital since the election to protest the results. Many were notably heard chanting “destroy the GOP.”

Biden hits Loeffler & Perdue for backing TX AG’s failed lawsuit against GA & other battleground states: “Your two GOP senators fully embraced what TX was telling the Supreme Court. They fully embraced nullifying nearly 5 million votes. You might want to remember that come Jan 5.”

Biden goes off on the Georgia recounts, the Texas lawsuit and Loeffler and Perdue’s support for Trump’s efforts to overturn the election:
