According to the secretary of state's office, the president's and the Georgia GOP's legal teams have voluntarily dismissed four lawsuits related to the general election.

"On the eve of getting the day in court they supposedly were begging for, President Trump and Chairman David Shafer’s legal team folded Thursday and voluntarily dismissed their election contests against Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger rather than submit their evidence to a court and to cross-examination," a press release from Raffensperger's office read.

The release also said that the president's legal team is falsely claiming one case was dismissed “due to an out of court settlement agreement.” Raffensperger's office said that isn't true and that "correspondence sent to Trump’s legal team prior to the dismissals makes perfectly clear that there is no settlement agreement."

The three other lawsuits were also voluntarily dismissed by the Trump legal team with no settlement agreements, according to Raffensperger's office.

Former White House Chief of Staff John Kelly said he believes Trump's Cabinet should meet and have a conversation about the 25th Amendment, adding that if he was still in the Cabinet and had the opportunity, he would vote to remove Trump from office.

"You were a former member of the Cabinet, in addition to being White House chief of staff. If you were in the cabinet right now, would you vote to remove him from office?" CNN's Jake Tapper asked Kelly on Thursday afternoon.

"I -- yes, I would. One thing we have going for us here, Jake, it's only 13 more days," Kelly said.

"I don't think it will happen, but I think the Cabinet should meet and discuss this," Kelly said of the move. "The behavior yesterday and in the weeks and months before that have just been outrageous from the president. And what happened on Capitol Hill yesterday is a direct result of his poisoning the minds of people with the lies and the fraud."

Kelly said the president's actions Wednesday "didn't surprise" him but that he was "very surprised that those people would assault the people's house, do the damage they did and embarrass us all."

He went on to very bluntly criticize Trump, calling him "a very, very flawed man" with "serious character issues."

The Biden transition is deflecting when asked questions about Trump's potential removal from office, saying both Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris are focused on their duties and taking office in less than two weeks.

A spokesperson said Biden and Harris will "leave it to Vice President Pence, the Cabinet and the Congress to act as they see fit," when it comes to Trump's removal, and again urged Trump stop blocking cooperation with the transition.

Former National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster on Twitter joined a growing list of former officials bluntly denouncing Trump's actions leading up to Wednesday's riot.

"The reasons for yesterday’s criminal assault on our Congress and election process are many.  But foremost among them is the sad reality that President Trump and other officials have repeatedly compromised our principles in pursuit of partisan advantage and personal gain," McMaster said in a Twitter thread.

"Those who engaged in disinformation and demagoguery in pursuit of self-interest abdicated their responsibility to the American people. It was, in every sense of the phrase, a dereliction of duty," he continued, calling on the public to "reject conspiracy theories and false narratives designed to polarize us and pit us against each other."

Trump has been quiet Saturday after Twitter announced Friday evening that it had permanently suspended the president's account.

"After close review of recent Tweets from the @realDonaldTrump account and the context around them -- specifically how they are being received and interpreted on and off Twitter -- we have permanently suspended the account due to the risk of further incitement of violence," Twitter wrote in a statement.

Trump's final tweet said he would not be attending Biden's inauguration.

After Twitter's announcement, Politico reported that the president went "ballistic" and “[scrambled] to figure out what his options [were].”

Hours after his suspension, Trump released a statement criticizing the ban and teasing a possible new platform.

"I predicted this would happen," he wrote in part. "We have been negotiating with various other sites, and will have a big announcement soon, while we also look at the possibilities of building out our own platform in the near future. We will not be SILENCED!"

"Twitter is not about FREE SPEECH. They are all about promoting a Radical Left platform where some of the most vicious people in the world are allowed to speak freely," he added.

Trump had attempted to post the same statement on Twitter using the official @POTUS account, but the platform deleted the thread, saying users who are banned cannot post from other accounts.

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo blasted Twitter Saturday, comparing the ban of the president to something that would happen in China.

"Silencing speech is dangerous. It’s un-American. Sadly, this isn’t a new tactic of the Left. They’ve worked to silence opposing voices for years. We cannot let them silence 75M Americans. This isn’t the [Chinese Communist Party,]" he wrote on Twitter.

Former Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley also took to the platform to draw a comparison to China writing, "Silencing people, not to mention the President of the US, is what happens in China not our country. #Unbelievable"

The White House announced Thursday that the president planned to spend the weekend at Camp David before notifying reporters that the trip was canceled. The president has nothing on his schedule Saturday.
