President Donald Trump spent much of his Saturday morning angrily tweeting about his claims of voter election fraud, calling President-elect Joe Biden a 'Fake President,' slamming the Supreme Court, Bill Barr and the GOP while also calling for an increase in direct payments from the COVID-19 stimulus bill.  

The lame duck president started his morning slamming the $740billion defense bill that he vetoed Wednesday, calling it a 'gift to China, Russia & Big Tech' that fails to 'terminate' Section 230, which gives social media companies legal immunity over the content put on their platforms.  

Trump said in the early Saturday tweet: 'Our $740 defense bill is a gift to China, Russia & Big Tech. It fails to terminate the internationally dangerous Section 230, won’t allow us to bring our troops back home (where they belong), renames & destroys our forts & National Monuments, & makes 5G almost impossible!

'I will not stand by and watch this travesty of a bill happen without reigning in Big Tech,' he continued into the next tweet. 'End Section 230 now, before it is too late. So bad for our Country. Show courage, and do what’s right!!!'

Turning his attention toward the election, Trump then shaded Senator Mitch McConnell and Senate Republicans for doing 'nothing' to stop the 'rigged and stolen' election.

'If a Democrat Presidential Candidate had an Election Rigged & Stolen, with proof of such acts at a level never seen before, the Democrat Senators would consider it an act of war, and fight to the death. Mitch & the Republicans do NOTHING, just want to let it pass. NO FIGHT!'

Trump then slammed Bill Barr, the Justice Department and the FBI for also doing 'nothing about the 2020 Presidential Election Voter Fraud.' 

'The “Justice” Department and the FBI have done nothing about the 2020 Presidential Election Voter Fraud, the biggest SCAM in our nation’s history, despite overwhelming evidence,' he claimed. 'They should be ashamed. History will remember. Never give up. See everyone in D.C. on January 6th.'

On three separate occasions, Trump made the same tweet about wanting to get Americans $2000 in COVID-19 relief after days of slamming the $600 agreed upon by Congress.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi has called Trump's bluff and moved to pass a measure for the $2,000 checks in the House on Thursday morning. But House Republicans snuffed out the move – failing to accept the offer in a rare Christmas Eve session and forcing the proposal to get shelved on a parliamentary procedure.  

'I simply want to get out great people $2000, rather than the measly $600 that is now in the bill,' Trump stated. 'Also, stop the billions of dollars in “pork”.'

Trump would turn his focus back to his disputed claims of election fraud, calling for the Durham Report before slamming the U.S. Supreme Court.

'Where the hell is the Durham Report? They spied on my campaign, colluded with Russia (and others), and got caught,' he said. 'Read the Horowitz Reports about Comey & McCabe. Even the Fake News @nytimes said “bad”. They tried it all, and failed, so now they are trying to steal the election!'

He added: 'The U.S. Supreme Court has been totally incompetent and weak on the massive Election Fraud that took place in the 2020 Presidential Election. We have absolute PROOF, but they don’t want to see it - No “standing”, they say. If we have corrupt elections, we have no country!'

President Trump finished his tirade calling the 2020 Election an election of a 'third world country,' referring to President-elect Joe Biden as a 'Fake President.'  

On Christmas day, Trump doubled down on his demand to Congress to increase payments from $600 to $2,000 in the spending and COVID-19 stimulus bill that lawmakers already sent to the president's desk.

'Made many calls and had meetings at Trump International in Palm Beach, Florida,' the president tweeted after being spotted with Sen. Lindsey Graham heading to his golf club on Christmas morning. 'Why would politicians not want to give people $2000, rather than only $600? It wasn’t their fault, it was China. Give our people the money!' 

Earlier, Politico's Playbook reported that the president was complaining that the giant package had too much 'pork.'   

The bill was flown from Washington, D.C. to Mar-a-Lago and had arrived, a person familiar with the situation told DailyMail.com.   

Politico also reported lawmakers had no idea whether the president will sign the bill, veto it or do nothing - which would prompt a government shutdown at midnight Monday. 

Republican sources told Axios that they expected Trump to sign the bill in the 'nick of time,' as reporter Mike Allen put it. 

Additionally, 14 million Americans are slated to lose unemployment aid on Saturday. 

'The best way out of this is for the president to sign the bill. I still hope that that’s what he decides to do,' Sen. Roy Blunt, a Missouri Republican, told the Politico newsletter Thursday.

The president hasn't talked to reporters since arriving in Florida.

Trump shocked Washington on Tuesday when he released a video threatening to veto a giant spending and COVID-19 relief package that Congress had passed, after sitting out negotiations for months 

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi immediately said she would accept Trump's call for larger $2,000 checks – and put the idea to the test on the House floor Thursday, but Republicans objected
