News Wrap: U.S. sets a new deadly record from COVID-19

In our news wrap Thursday, nearly 3,900 people died from COVID-19 Wednesday -- the highest one-day total so far, President-elect Joe Biden introduced federal Appeals Court Judge Merrick Garland as his pick for attorney general, fresh violence kills at least 23 civilians and security troops in Afghanistan, and the court system in Iraq has issued an arrest warrant for President Trump for murder.
