Electors will gather in state capitols to confirm Biden’s victory even as president Trump continues, without evidence, to dispute result Violence flares as far-right Trump supporters clash with counter-protesters Suspected Russian hackers spied on US federal agencies Covid vaccines roll out of Pfizer plant in US Sign up to receive First Thing – our daily briefing by email 10.24am GMT The US will hold a climate summit of the world’s major economies early next year, within 100 days of Joe Biden taking office, and seek to rejoin the Paris agreement on the first day of his presidency, in a boost to international climate action. Leaders from 75 countries met without the US in a virtual Climate Ambition Summit co-hosted by the UN, the UK and France at the weekend, marking the fifth anniversary of the Paris accord. The absence of the US underlined the need for more countries, including other major economies such as Brazil, Russia and Indonesia, to make fresh commitments on tackling the climate crisis. Related: US to hold world climate summit early next year and seek to rejoin Paris accord 10.15am GMT Donald Trump’s decision not to immediately make a statement by taking the Covid vaccine certainly muddies the message from his administration, which is due to roll out a massive pro-vaccine advertising campaign imminently to attempt to counter public mistrust. Sheryl Gay Stolberg and Michael D. Shear report for the New York Times that: The Building Vaccine Confidence campaign, overseen by the Department of Health and Human Services, will unfold in an atmosphere of hope as vaccinations begin. The celebrity component — which was to include the actor Dennis Quaid and the country singer Billy Ray Cyrus — was scrapped after an inquiry by House Democrats prompted Alex M. Azar II, the health secretary, to order an internal review of the plan. The new initiative will take a “science-based approach,” said Mark Weber, the federal health official who is running it, and will begin this week with a first wave of advertisements in print, social media and radio, with television advertising added when the vaccine becomes more broadly available. 10.07am GMT Donald Trump has said he is reversing an administration directive to vaccinate top government officials against Covid-19. Trump made the announcement hours after his administration confirmed that senior US officials, including some White House aides who work in close proximity to Trump and the vice-president, Mike Pence, would be offered coronavirus vaccines as soon as this week under federal continuity of government plans. People working in the White House should receive the vaccine somewhat later in the program, unless specifically necessary. I have asked that this adjustment be made. I am not scheduled to take the vaccine, but look forward to doing so at the appropriate time. Thank you! 10.03am GMT Donald Trump on Monday could suffer a withering blow to his increasingly hopeless effort to overturn the results of the US presidential election when 538 members of the electoral college will cast their ballots and formally send Joe Biden to the White House. Under the arcane formula which America has followed since the first election in 1789, Monday’s electoral college vote will mark the official moment when Biden becomes the 46th president-in-waiting. Electors, including political celebrities such as both Bill and Hillary Clinton, will gather in state capitols across the country to cement the outcome of this momentous race.
