US Congress reconvenes for counting of electoral votes after Capitol siege

After violent demonstrations by outgoing US President Donald Trump's supporters at US Capitol in Washington DC briefly halted the certification process of President-elect Joe Bien, the Congress reconvened in both House of Representatives and Senate to resume the counting of electoral votes.

Democrat Senator from New Hampshire, Cynthia Jeanne Shaheen, said, "For the sake of our great country and America's standing in the world, I ask my colleagues to fully endorse the result of free and fair election.

We should be venerating peaceful transfer of power." Condemning the mob violence, Minority Leader in House of Representatives and Republican Kevin McCarthy said, "We are all Americans first, we should also think for a moment what we put on social media.

What we convey to one another just because you have an opinion different than mine.

We should all stand together in condemning the mob."

Trump Promises 'Largest Deportation Program' in U.S. History, Military Power to Lead the Charge

President-elect Donald Trump has confirmed plans to launch the "largest deportation program" in U.S. history, utilising military power to carry out mass deportations of undocumented migrants. This announcement follows his election victory, during which immigration reform was a central issue. Trump has pledged to deport millions of illegal immigrants, focusing on stabilising the U.S.-Mexico border and addressing the surge in illegal crossings during President Joe Biden's administration. The program will involve military assets, with Trump amplifying the approach via social media. The initiative aims to significantly reduce the number of undocumented migrants in the country, impacting millions of families, with critics warning of potential legal and humanitarian concerns. Trump’s plan signals a tough stance on immigration, promising to restore what he describes as national security and order at the southern border #TrumpDeportationPlan #MilitaryDeportation #LargestDeportation #USImmigration #Trump2024 #BorderSecurity #DeportationCrisis #TrumpPromises #ImmigrationReform #USMilitaryPower #DeportationProgram #BorderCrisis #USPolitics #ImmigrationPolicy #TrumpAgenda ~HT.97~PR.152~ED.194~GR.344~

FIRST U.S ELECTION RESULT OUT: Trump and Harris' 3-3 Deadlock in Dramatic Dixville Notch Kickoff

In a dramatic kickoff to the U.S. presidential election, the small New Hampshire town of Dixville Notch witnessed an historic tie between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, with each candidate securing three votes. As the first town in the nation to cast ballots, Dixville Notch's evenly split results set the stage for a closely contested race. This notable occurrence reflects the national polling trends, indicating a tight race ahead. The tradition of midnight voting in Dixville Notch dates back to 1960, and this year’s split vote underscores the intense competition between the two candidates. As Trump seeks to reclaim the presidency after his 2020 exit, Harris aims to make history as the first woman and the first person of Indian descent to hold the office. With swing states poised to play a crucial role in determining the election outcome, this early result adds an intriguing twist to an already electrifying electoral landscape. #TrumpVsHarris #KamalaHarris #HarrisVsTrump #DonaldTrump #TrumpVsHarrisPolls #KamalaHarrisVsTrump #DonaldTrumpVsKamalaHarris #Trump #TrumpVsHarrisDebate #TrumpHarris #KamalaHarrisVsTrumpDebate #Harris #TrumpHarrisDebate #TrumpVsHarrisUSElections #KamalaHarrisVsDonaldTrump #HarrisTrumpDebate
