  • At 1: 00 p.m. local time on the 6th, when the US Senate and House of Representatives decided on the results of the US presidential election, the drama "King of diligence in Beijing" kicked off at the repeated instigation of US President Donald Trump.

  • In addition, in the latest reversal, the New York Stock Exchange announced that it would still delist three China Telecom Corporation companies.

The US election is so exciting that Trump still wants to make a comeback at the last minute.

At 1: 00 p.m. local time on the 6th, the US Senate and House of Representatives will hold a joint meeting to confirm the voting results of the Electoral College, which is also the last step to determine the results of the US presidential election.

"if Vice President Pence stands up for us, we will win the presidential election. In the early morning of the 6th local time, US President Trump once again tweeted to pressure Vice President Pence to overturn the election results in Congress.

Not only that, Trump called on his supporters to take part in the march in an attempt to "make a fuss" in Washington.

Trump is still trying to reverse the game!

At 1: 00 p.m. local time on the 6th, the US Senate and House of Representatives will hold a joint meeting to confirm the voting results of the Electoral College, which is also the last step to determine the results of the US presidential election.

On this day, however, US media expected a large number of Trump supporters to pour into Washington, and Trump called on his supporters to take part in the march in an attempt to "stir up" Washington. Trump himself said he would be at the rally.

In fact, Trump supporters have been protesting in Washington since the 5th local time, putting pressure on the upcoming joint session of Congress in an attempt to overturn the election results that Biden has won.

In response to the protest, Washington has entered a state of alert ahead of time. Traffic control was implemented early on the 5th local time, and merchants also blocked and protected the storefront with planks to prevent the store from being damaged.

"if Vice President Pence stands up for us, we will win the presidential election. In the early morning of the 6th local time, US President Trump once again tweeted to pressure Vice President Pence to overturn the election results in Congress.

This will be Trump's "last resort" before leaving the White House. On the 6th, Pence will chair a joint session of Congress to verify the final counting of the votes of the Electoral College, putting an end to the US general election.

On the 5th local time, the New York Times reported that Pence made it clear to Trump that he had no right to prevent Congress from certifying Biden's victory. Trump then issued a statement denouncing the reports as "fake news" and stressing Pence's right to take action in Congress.

The statement also pointed out that according to the US Constitution, Pence can return the electoral votes to the states for re-certification, or refuse to accept illegal electoral votes, and the House of Representatives will elect a new president in the form of "one state, one vote."

As to whether Pence has the right to overturn the election result, the US media and legal experts believe that Pence's certification procedure is only "ceremonial." if Pence overturns the result, it will be unprecedented and violate the US Constitution, and is bound to be vetoed by both the Senate and House of Representatives.

Some experts say bluntly that Pence's certification process is like an "Oscar host" who only needs to "open the envelope and see what's inside."

U.S. vice President John Pence told President Trump Friday that he doesn't think he has the right to stop Congress from certifying President-elect Joe Biden's victory, according to the New York Times.

It is reported that Pence made the above remarks at a weekly luncheon with the president.

As of press time, Trump is still shouting Pence in public, hoping that he will "come forward"! Trump tweeted: "States want to correct their votes, and they now know that this is based on irregularities and fraud, plus corruption procedures that have never been approved by legislation." What Mike Burns has to do is send them back to the states so that we will win. Mike, this is a time of great courage! "

"the Republican Party, and more importantly, our country needs the presidency more than ever before. The power of veto. Be strong! hold on! "

"King Qin in Beijing" was staged ahead of schedule.A scuffle on the streets of Washington!

Supporters of US President Donald Trump held a protest in downtown Washington on the evening of May 5 local time, clashing with police, who used pepper spray to disperse demonstrators, according to several US media reports. The wall erected by the police was also attacked by demonstrators. Several demonstrators were arrested. According to US media reports, almost none of the demonstrators wore masks.

At the repeated instigation of US President Donald Trump, the drama of "King of diligence in Beijing" kicked off. According to a video posted on Twitter by OANN White House correspondent Pellegrino, a large number of Trump supporters gathered outside the Washington rally in the early morning of the 6th local time, waiting to enter. "A record number of people have appeared in Washington to support Trump and honest elections," Pellegrino wrote.

Trump even announced on Twitter that a large rally called "Save America" will be held in Washington at 11:00 on the 6th.

On the night of January 5, Trump supporters continued to stay on the streets of the SAR, and some of them clashed with the SAR police.

NBC reported that police in Washington, D.C., have arrested at least six people and charged a number of people with robbery, wounding, assaulting a police officer, a stun gun and illegal fireworks.

Terrible! Trump rally spokesman asked people to hug each other!

According to the Huffington Post on January 5, Trump supporter and podcast host Clay Clark (Clay Clark) angered many netizens by calling on participants to "hug" and "spread" at a rally in Washington, D.C.

On January 5, thousands of Trump supporters gathered in Washington for a rally to protest the election result.

At the rally, Clay Clark told the participants that COVID-19 was a hoax. He called on groups of gatherers to hug in Liberty Square, saying "this is a large-scale communication event."

Turn to the person next to you and give a hug to someone you don't know.

To hug someone, go ahead, spread it. This is a large-scale communication event!

Clay Clark also claimed: "although I am married, but if you also want to hug me, come!" "

The "crazy" rally of Trump supporters angered many people on Twitter.

Netizen @ Eric Feigl-Ding said:

I spent years studying for a PhD in epidemiology, but he talked nonsense without thinking. This is indeed a large-scale spread of the virus.

Netizen @ Shannon said:

This is not only dangerous, but also disrespectful to the medical staff. They have been dealing with COVID-19 for the past 10 months and are exhausted. This group of people generally lack basic morality. Ask yourself, do you want to be associated with novel coronavirus?

Foreign media: Democrat Osov declares victory in Georgia Senate run-off election

Agence France-Presse just reported that Democrat Jon Osov (Jon Ossoff) announced on the 6th local time that he had defeated Republican Sen. David Perdue in the Senate run-off of Georgia.

Reported that this will allow Democrats to regain control of the Senate from Republicans.

However, US officials have not yet announced the results of the run-off election, and Purdue himself did not respond to this.

Georgia ushered in the second round of voting for senators on January 5th. The vote will determine not only the state's two seats in the Senate, but also which Republicans or Democrats will take the lead in the Senate, and even affect whether Biden can govern smoothly and whether Trump can maintain his influence in the future. Earlier, Trump and Biden came to Georgia to canvass votes for candidates from their respective political parties.

Analysts say that after the Democratic Party controls both the Senate and the House of Representatives, Sino-US relations are expected to be stable in the short term, but it is difficult to make a substantial improvement.

In Biden's cabinet team, National Security adviser Jake Sullivan and Secretary of State Antony Blinken, who are at the core of foreign policy decision-making, are both hawkish in their policy positions on China, so it is difficult for Sino-US relations to improve substantially.

Due to the control of both houses of Congress, Biden's first task after taking office is to prevent and control the epidemic and restore the economy, and then he will take advantage of the rare seat in Congress to promote a series of internal affairs. Externally, he may give priority to rejoining the Paris Climate Agreement and restarting TPP or CPTPP, which also means that Sino-US relations are expected to enter a relatively stable period in the short term.

The New York Stock Exchange reversed again: it will promote the delisting of three China Telecom Corporation enterprises.

In the late night of January 6, Agence France-Presse just reported that in the latest reversal, the New York Stock Exchange announced that it would still delist three China Telecom Corporation enterprises.

Three Chinese companies, China Unicom (Hong Kong), China Mobile Limited and China Telecom Corporation, were delisted, the New York Stock Exchange said in a statement on December 31, 2020.

Then, on January 4, local time, the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) announced that the NYSE would not require the three Chinese telecom operators to delist.

In the announcement, the NYSE said: "in view of further discussions with relevant regulators on the Office of Foreign assets Control (OFAC) frequently asked questions (FAQS) 857, the NYSE Regulatory Authority no longer intends to proceed with the delisting of the three issuers, China Telecom Corporation Co., Ltd., China Mobile Limited Co., Ltd., and China Unicom (Hong Kong) Co., Ltd., announced on December 31, 2020. "

And then there was a reversal! The current decision of the New York Stock Exchange has been opposed by US Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, and the delisting event has added to the uncertainty.

On Jan. 6, a Bloomberg reporter said on Twitter that Mr. Mnuchin called NYSE President Stacey Cunningham to say he disagreed with the NYSE's decision to withdraw the delisting of three China Telecom Corporation operators.

Bloomberg said the NYSE is considering resuming its delisting plans for Chinese companies after Mr Mnuchin criticized it.

The decision to cancel the delisting announced by the New York Stock Exchange on January 4 caught US officials by surprise, causing outrage at the highest levels of the Trump administration, Bloomberg said.

On Tuesday, local time, U.S. Treasury Secretary Mnuchin called Cunningham, president of NYSE Euronext, to express his dissatisfaction with his decision to allow three China Telecom Corporation operators to continue to list on the New York Stock Exchange.

White House Chief of staff Mark Meadows, White House National Security adviser Robert O'Brien and White House National Economic Council Director Larry Cudlow also participated in the government's pressure campaign, according to people familiar with the matter.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs also responded to this early. Spokeswoman Hua Chunying said:

On this issue, I made clear China's principled position on two consecutive inquiries yesterday and the day before yesterday. I can stress once again that the status of the United States as an international financial centre depends on the trust of global businesses and investors in the inclusiveness and certainty of its rule system. Recently, some political forces in the United States have continued to crack down on foreign companies listed in the United States for no reason, reflecting the arbitrariness, arbitrariness and uncertainty of their rules and systems.

The direct impact of the US crackdown on Chinese-related companies is quite limited, and the ultimate damage will be the national interests and image of the United States, as well as the global position of the United States capital markets.

It is hoped that the US side will respect the rule of law and the market, and do more to maintain the order of the global financial market, protect the legitimate rights and interests of investors and be conducive to the stable development of the global economy.

I think not only China, but also other countries are watching what the United States does, and the behavior of the United States will determine whether its image in the eyes of the people of the world is credible, reliable, and worthy of cooperation.

On the news of another reversal on the New York Stock Exchange, the share prices of the three major operators plunged again in intraday trading.

In addition, on the evening of the 6th, the price of gold suddenly plunged by 2%.
