I love that they are explaining the mechanics of how our elections work. States generally give their electoral votes to the person who wins the popular vote in the states (although some states are trying to change that now). #HATH
What does it mean that "our institutions held"? The people in local offices did the right thing. But that's no longer true. Look at New Mexico officials refusing to certify the recent election. #HATH
(Editorial: His MO was always to assert nonsense to lay groundwork for what he was going to do anyway. See @jeffpearlman on his football antics.) #HATH
Schiff is up. Reiterates that Trump lost, but fought to hold onto power, by stopping the vote count, stopping states from certifying the election by filing frivolous lawsuits. Then threatened state legislators to back him. #HATH
Wanted states to send two slates of electors so Pence could count them in. When legislators wouldn't, did a sham process they sent in to Congress anyway. #HATH
Trump targeted not just Pence, but every level of our elections. Needed those state slates so Pence could count them in. All of it based in a lie. Barr said "bullshit." #HATH
Tape of people screaming at local election officials. (Totally scary stuff.) Jocelyn Benson (who is totally cool, from all I can see) tells the story of her experience, not knowing if she and her kids were safe. #HATH
CounterSocial is the first Social Network Platform to take a zero-tolerance stance to hostile nations, bot accounts and trolls who are weaponizing OUR social media platforms and freedoms to engage in influence operations against us. And we're here to counter it.

The Big Lie is corrupting our democratic institutions. The threat is on-going.
