President-elect Joe Biden announced a 12-member task force to handle the coronavirus pandemic when he takes office, to be led by former surgeon general Dr. Vivek Murthy and former Food and Drug Administration commissioner David Kessler. President Donald Trumps legal team launched a challenge against the election results in Pennsylvania, alleging that Kathy Boockvar, Pennsylvanias secretary of state, and county boards of election ran an unfair election in the state, despite presenting no evidence of tampering or voter fraud. Trump fired Defense Secretary Mark Esper and announced Christopher Miller, director of the National Counterterrorism Center, will become acting secretary of defense. Ben Carson, the secretary for Housing and Human Development, became to latest Trump cabinet member to test positive for coronavirus after attending Trumps election night party. Attorney General William Barr sent a memo authorizing federal prosecutors to pursue substantial allegations of voting irregularities in last weeks presidential election despite no evidence of such fraud. Tuesday, Nov. 10 The Food and Drug Administration authorized the emergency use of pharmaceutical company Eli Lillys experimental COVID-19 antibody treatment, called bamlanivimab, but only for non-hospitalized patients with mild-to-moderate symptoms. In another ramping up of tensions between the two powers, the U.S. sanctioned four more officials in mainland China and Hong Kong for their role in Beijing imposing national security laws that threaten Hong Kongs autonomy. Biden called Trumps refusal to concede in the presidential election an embarrassment, as Trump reportedly ordered agencies to block the transition to the Biden administration and Bidens team threatened legal action in response. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, when asked if he was cooperating with Bidens transition team, said there will be a smooth transition to a second Trump administration. The Treasury Department sanctioned six Iran-related companies and four individuals, accusing them of supplying goods to Iran Communication Industries, an Iranian military firm blacklisted by the U.S. and the European Union. Pompeo informed Congress that the Trump administration approved the sale of more than $23 billion in advanced weapons systems to the United Arab Emirates. The Centers for Disease Control released a scientific brief describing how wearing a mask not only protects others as it has been saying for months, but that it also protects the wearer from COVID-19 spread. Wednesday, Nov. 11 The House Oversight Committee revealed that a worker with the United States Postal Service in Pennsylvania who alleged ballot tampering, retracted his claims. In his first important appointment, Biden named longtime advisor Ron Klain as his White House chief of staff. Thursday, Nov. 12 Trump signed an executive order banning U.S. investments in certain Chinese firms that are allegedly owned or controlled by the Chinese military, which could affect some of Chinas biggest companies. A coordinated council of federal, state and local elections officials released a statement rebuking Trumps claims of voter fraud. While we know there are many unfounded claims and opportunities for misinformation about the process of our elections, we can assure you we have the utmost confidence in the security and integrity of our elections, and you should, too, the officials said. Friday, Nov. 13 Trump still refused to concede the election, eight days after his last public remarks, and insisted the U.S. wont re-enter a lockdown to curb the spread of the coronavirus, even as cases spike severely nationwide. The Washington Post reported more than 130 Secret Service officers assigned to protect Trump have been diagnosed with COVID-19, as the true size of the outbreak at the White House continues to be revealed. Democratic congressional leaders criticized Trump for stonewalling Biden from making a smooth transition into the White House. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said, It is most unfortunate that the Republicans have decided that they will not respect the will of the people, and let me just say: Its like the house is burning down and they just refused to throw water on it. Trump was defeated in last-ditch legal efforts to change the election outcome in Pennsylvania, Arizona and Michigan. Federal prosecutors assigned to monitor elections for signs of voter fraud criticized Barr for his memo earlier in the week, saying that they had found no evidence of substantial allegations of voting and vote tabulation irregularities and that the memo was not based in fact. Saturday, Nov. 14 At a town hall meeting, House Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez expressed concern about the influence big technology companies may have on Bidens incoming administration considering the passage of Proposition 22 in California.

Sunday, Nov. 15 The White House told the Pentagon to begin planning to bring the troop levels in Afghanistan and Iraq down to 2,500 each by Jan. 15.
