so hayes is counted in. but the democrats, and this is the scene i want to leave you with, what a scene it would have been. the democrats still didn't get up. once it was clear that they -- that this commission was going to rule for the republicans, because there are eight republicans on it and seven democrats, all the time, people start writing tilden. and they say, we want you to go to court and get writs of quo warranto to serve on hayes. and one guy says -- he said i want you to get that writ of quo warranto and i want you to be at the inauguration on inauguration day and after he takes the oath of office, but before he gives his inaugural address i want you to serve it on him, right there on the steps of the capitol. so he spends all four years in court trying to defend his right to hold office. that would have been a scene for the history books. thank you.

good evening from new york, i'm chris hayes. it has been a really remarkable day of news.resident-elect joe biden delivering a speech in wilmington, delaware, on a truly significant day as we're right now looking to turn the page on the two biggest stories of this brutal, brutal year. so today members of the electoral college met across the country to formally cast their ballots. now, this happens every four years. this is usually a pro forma thing that's not really covered. it happens in the bac

i'm chris hayes. we want them infected. those are the words of a top trump appointee directing the federal government to pursue an intentional strategy from the top down to get as many americans as sick as possible in an attempt at so-called herd immunity. it's a strategy we have seen unfold before our eyes. we've talked about it here on the show. it's been apparent to all of us reporting on this and watching. we now have the smoking gun evidence, e-mails obtained by politico, in which the very people at the center of this say what exactly they were doing. that they wanted people to get the virus. this is the result. that's the national cathedral in washington, d.c. last night. its bell tolling 300 times, one ring of the bell for every thousand americans as we passed the 300,000 death toll. according to the covid tracking project we lost another 3,400 americans that have died since roughly when those bells rang just last night and that is a new daily record. we've never seen it before. no country has. 3400 americans lost to

i'm chris hayes. we are now 43 days from the end of the trump administration. inauguration of joe biden. today was a very big day because in the uk an image the world has been waiting for 90-year-old margaret keenan getting the first clinically proven vaccination against the virus. while here in the u.s. joe biden announced a goal of 100 million vaccinations in his first hundred days. and then not long after that, the supreme court of the united states slapped down a gop lawsuit that sought to overturn the results of pennsylvania. it did that without any dissenting voices from the court. so there's a lot going on. every day brings this study in contrast between an out going administration that is trafficking in reckless lies and conspiracy mongering and an incoming administration that is projecting a grave seriousness of purpose. whether they can live up to that we'll see. at the same time this afternoon trump and biden held dueling events focused on the pandemic. the white house event devolved of course into the president ranting about debunked conspiracy theo

good evening from new york, i'm chris hayes. it has been a really remarkable day of news. we just heard president-elect joe biden delivering a speech in wilmington, delaware, on a truly significant day as we're right now looking to turn the page on the two biggest stories of this brutal, brutal year. so today members of the electoral college met across the country to formally cast their ballots. now, this happens every four years. this is usually a pro forma thing that's not really covered. it happens in the background because the loser of the election by this point has already conceded and everyone has accepted the peaceful transfer of power. but because the president and his party have posed an unprecedented nearly challenge to the peaceful transfer of power, we have been following and covering in minutia the guts of the electoral college system. this was the moment that the california delegation voted, putting joe biden over the 270-vote threshold to officially become president-elect. you see there one of the last hurdles in finalizing the election results coming after

. >> chris hayes, i would like you to conjure from the depths of your policy and personnel understanding, which i know is epic -- i want you to conjure the ninja slash genius who should be put in charge of the postal service in the biden administration to fix all the things you were just talking about with katie porter there and what louis dejoy has left in his wake. it's going to have to be somebody amazing. >> yeah, that is true. that's a fun fantasy draft exercise to figure out if you can put any one person in charge of this incredibly important, you know, well nigh sacred in a civic sense institution, who should it be? i'm going to noodle on that. >> that's exactly right. you get bonus points if you figure out who it should be not just for bringing it back to its former glory but also for adding postal service banking to the list of things that happened at the postal service. if you can come up with that, you win a free tv show. >> all right, my friend. i'm on it. >> all right. well done. nobody better. if anybody can come up with that, it is chris hayes. >>> thanks to you at home fo

i'm madi hassan in for chris hayes. tonight we have more dire news on the spread of the coronavirus. projections show we're on track for an absolutely hellish january with more than 100,000 new deaths expected next month, alone. and officials in colorado confirming today the first case of a highly contagious covid-19 variant that was first identified in the uk. we also have more news about the failure to get vaccines out to the american public as the next president of the united states is warning the american people that the current president who was on the golf course again today is not doing enough to save american lives. we're going to be covering all of that on the show tonight. >>> but we begin in the united states senate where earlier today mitch mcconnell and the republicans had a chance to help 160 million americans suffering in the midst of the worst economic catastrophe since the great depression. in a year when america's billionaires grew their wealth by a trillion dollars, mcconnell and his merry band of mul

i'm chris hayes. some stunning breaking news tonight about a federal investigation into a bribery scheme in an effort to secure a presidential pardon. court records unsealed in d.c. today, they are heavily redacted. we've been going over them. they reflect a sealed opinion made by a federal judge all the way back in august. they appear to reveal an investigation, an active investigation that involved a possible offer by some redacted individual to, quote, offer a substantial political contribution in exchange for a presidential pardon or reprieve of sentence. now, that news, this unsealed document, this unsealed ruling comes after the president pardoned his first national security adviser michael flynn who, of course, twice pleaded guilty to lying to the fbi and after reports from "the new york times" that rudy giuliani has been discussing with the president the possibility of receiving a preemptive pardon before mr. trump leaves office and after trump tv favorite sean hannity suggested the president

hayes.not surprise you to learn that trump's best buds, the "fox & friends," did not take kindly to obama's reasonable, sane advice. so they responded by making up a bunch of dumb lies about him >> the former president of the united states does bring up the fact that he wishes that president trump would concede. but keep in mind, too, he does not acknowledge his role in the aftermath during the president's so-called honeymoon, the president-elect period he does not acknowledge the fact that the president, they launched the mueller report. never gave the president one day of peace during his transition >> seth: oh, brian kilmeade. i don't know what's going on between your sewn-on button eyes, but are you saying obama never gave trump one day of peace during his transition? trump has never given us one day of peace for the last four years. he's just taken so much energy i banged my elbow on the kitchen counter one day and started sobbing. i realized quickly that it wasn't banging my elbow that

today's nutcracker show will be in the street on the corner of hayes and goff from 2:00 to 3:00 p.m. that is so fantastic. i love how creative people are at getting people into the holiday spirit. >> for sure, trees up, lights out. it's getting festive out there. we've got a cold front that will be moving through the bay area later on today. but unfortunately not looking at any measurable precip. the cloud cover, that's going to increase throughout the day today. maybe some sprinkles in the north bay, but the energy heads north and we get left with a cooler day, and not enough energy, though, to scour out the hazy conditions. that will come with the wind tomorrow. here's a look from our east bay hills camera, you can see the poor air quality, 48 downtown, 46 in oakland, good morning to you, san jose, 42 there, 45 down around mountain view with 37 in morgan hill. as we look at santa cruz, looks beautiful, doesn't it, with temperatures in the upper 40s, we had the large swell over the past day or so, that has subsided. and now we're looking at pretty good conditions, although the cloud

i'm mehdi hassan in for chris hayes. throw weeks from now donald trump will no longer be president, and a lot of people will be breathing a huge sigh of relief. but one of the big worries for many of us is what happens when the next trump comes along, someone who appeals to the base and is just as amoral and cynical as trump, but who is smarter and savvier. well, today we got something like an official candidate announcement for that role. it came from missouri republican senator josh hawley, who casts himself as a reformist and a populist, a young senator willing to break with the old ideas and the old elites in charge of both parties. hawley partnered with bernie sanders in calling for $2,000 covid relief checks after trump took that stance, and some of his positions, including his very justified attacks on the power of big tech are shared by many on the left. but hawley is also a calculating politician who many believe is positioning himself for a presidential run in the post trump era. and he has decided that the bes
