A second day of sometimes dueling demonstrations over the integrity of the U.S. presidential election started in Philadelphia and other cities as ballot counting dragged on in a handful of states that will decide the outcome https://t.co/mhdCeAxyNu pic.twitter.com/2I8oOXWjmJ

BREAKING: @jacobsoboroff demands evidence from Ric Grenell, Trump adviser and former acting director of national intelligence, to back up his assertions about votes in Nevada. pic.twitter.com/glaBjSHJk8

Grenell really gives the game away here by admitting that it was more important for him to go on Fox News and make unsubstantiated claims of voter fraud than to provide supposed proof of that to the authorities. These claims appear unable to exist outside a scrutiny-free bubble. https://t.co/u7cMrqq2f7

After Laxalt-Grenell-Schlapp evidence-free charges, Trump campaign acting like bottom-feeding lawyers looking for clients. Reprehensible. I've covered politics for 35 yrs, love game as much as anyone. What these people are doing to sow distrust of the system is beyond the pale. pic.twitter.com/oJ0alfXIf7

Not sharing the video of Bannon (literally) calling for Dr. Fauci and the head of the FBI to be beheaded because he's clearly trying to incite violence, but reminder to the press that he's not some genius strategist. He is nothing without your attention & his billionaire funder. pic.twitter.com/Th12IoPCHd

I’m not going to share the video, but Steve Bannon called for the beheading of Dr. Fauci and FBI Director Chris Wray.

Political reporters who still interview him and go to him for quotes like he’s a legitimate public figure: maybe stop doing that?
There is no path without Pennsylvania, Sean.

In his “STOP THE COUNT!” tweeting, Trump’s real position, of course, is that only votes cast for him should be counted. @atrupar has more on where we're at today: https://t.co/LHIQD8k23r #Election2020

The only case of election fraud this year that Pennsylvania’s secretary of state says she’s aware of is this case: A Trump supporter who tried to apply for a ballot for his dead mother. https://t.co/qlkqIaEypK https://t.co/04UMYErPBB

The only thing slower than the Nevada count is Eric Trump

ANALYSIS: A key question moving forward is whether public opinion polling is irreparably broken or if polling is just broken in elections with Trump on the ballot, @nathanlgonzales writes. https://t.co/4nC4npuucD

I know this is a long drawn-out process and you're getting impatient but I promise you that when all the votes are counted, I'm sending the meteor.
