…in an attempt to
mislead the public and undermine confidence in electionsmanufacture excuses for MAGA-controlled election boards to throw out Harris votes, the MAGA-controlled House to obstruct certification, and the MAGA-controlled SCOTUS to coronate Trump regardless of who would’ve legitimately won the EC vote.FTFY

They like to try and dress it up a bit, but yeah…
No matter how garbage the claims are they will continue to do damage and get people hurt. I have a very hard time believing in any form of free speech where this kind of speech is protected.
