About this episode

All 50 states and Washington, D.C. have certified their presidential election results despite Pres. Trump asking the Supreme Court to block millions of votes from four battleground states that voted for President-elect Biden. The Texas Attorney General filed the lawsuit looking to invalidate millions of votes cast in Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Pres. Trump has asked Ted Cruz to argue Texas election lawsuit if it reaches Supreme Court. John Dean is a former Nixon White House Counsel and is also a CNN Contributor. He tells Anderson Cooper he doesn’t believe the lawsuit has any merit. Plus, the FDA is scheduled to meet Thursday to authorize Pfizer’s vaccine but there are many questions surrounding the plan to get the shots from the manufacturers into hospitals, assisted living facilities and pharmacies. Kathleen Sebelius is the former Department of Health and Human Services Secretary. She joins AC360 to discuss the latest with the vaccine and says “we have to balance some unknowns still with the vaccines with the notion that this will absolutely save lives.”
