SHOCKER (not!): Separately, Enrique Tarrioā€”a Proud Boys leaderā€”told the @nytimes that he called Roger Stone while at a protest in front of the home of Marco Rubio in the days before the Capitol assault & put Stone on speaker phone to address the gathering.

#TrumpInsurrection
Thatā€™s at least 2 members of the Proud Boys who were in communication with people associated with the Trump WH, underscoring the access that violent TERRORISTS had to the White House and to people close to Trump.šŸ¤¬

šŸ”„During their conversation, Graham asked @GaSecofState whether he had the power to toss out all #MailInBallots in certain counties, Raffensperger told @washingtonpost. He said Graham asked him to improperly find a way to set aside legally cast ballots.

Thatā€™s a #felony.šŸ¤¬

šŸšØSEDITION: after top DOJ officials threatened to quit in protest of Trumpā€™s plot to oust Acting AG Rosen, Trump pushed @TheJusticeDept to ask the SCOTUS to invalidate @POTUS Bidenā€™s victory.

Yet another attempt by Trump to overturn the election.šŸ¤¬

Trump pressured DOJ to file a baseless lawsuit in SCOTUSā€”top DOJ officials, including Bill Barr, refused.

DOJ department heads then said theyā€™d QUIT in protest.

Their resignation pact helped persuade Trump to keep AG Rosenā€”calculating that a furor over mass resignations at the top of DOJ would eclipse attention on his baseless accusations of voter ā€œfraud.ā€

šŸšØā€œOperation Occupy the Capitol"

This is DOMESTIC TERRORISM.šŸ¤¬
