8. There is an effort among some corporations -- and some in the corporate media -- to "move on" from the January 6 attack But the January 6 attack never ended For updates and more accountability journalism sign up (free) for the newsletter --> https://t.co/TfpCItdVSo — PolitiTweet.org

7. Placing conspiracy-minded Trump loyalists in charge of election administration in key states is, to put it mildly, an existential threat to democracy These institutions held in 2020. There is no guarantee they will hold in 2024. https://t.co/L6EnSsFCgW — PolitiTweet.org

6. In Michigan, Trump endorsed Kristina Karamo for Secretary of State. Karamo has appeared alongside Mike Lindell of MyPillow promoting election fraud conspiracy theories. https://t.co/L6EnSsFCgW — PolitiTweet.org

5. In Georgia, Trump endorsed Jody Hice for Secretary of State. Hice says he is "totally convinced that... fraudulent activity was widespread" in Georgia in 2020 https://t.co/L6EnSsFCgW — PolitiTweet.org

4. In Arizona, Trump just endorsed Mark Finchem for Secretary of State. Finchem defended the January 6 riot and claimed there was "clear and convincing fraud" in Arizona in 2020. https://t.co/L6EnSsFCgW — PolitiTweet.org

3. Trump, of course, actively supported the Elder campaign's baseless claims But he's also engaged in a much more alarming effort to put voter fraud conspiracy theorists in charge of election administration in key states like Georgia, Arizona, & Michigan https://t.co/L6EnSsFCgW — PolitiTweet.org

2. Elder's voter fraud claims were never going to reverse the results in Cali. But that wasn't the point. "Allegations of ballot-rigging help Trump-friendly forces build their base, in California and elsewhere." https://t.co/L6EnSsFCgW — PolitiTweet.org

1. The California recall was unsuccessful. But it was part of a much larger strategy to orient Republican politics around undermining & overturning democratic outcomes Elder ultimately conceded. But he preemptive declared himself a victim of voter fraud https://t.co/L6EnSsFCgW — PolitiTweet.org

UPDATE: DeSantis says he DOESN'T REMEMBER an anti-vaxx conspiracy theorist saying that COVID vaccines change your RNA, a comment that was made WHILE DESANTIS WAS STANDING NEXT TO HIM https://t.co/hnKTR3M6Ib — PolitiTweet.org
