There is a pro-Trump “Stop The Steal” group on Facebook alleging all kinds of baseless election fraud. A rabbithole of misinformation.

The group is gaining about 1,000 new members EVERY 10 SECONDS at the moment.

There is some breathtakingly dishonesty and absolutely batshit conspiracy crap. Apparently fueled by many corrupt and q-uestionable sources. They have worked themselves into a rabid lather. Organized bozos with weapons, fake news and no brains. That's a danger to society right there. Report every bit of their bullshit.

Hope they wiped it down with disinfectant. That was a steaming sewer of rank deplorable.

On edit, here's the statement from FB on these clowns...
"In line with the exceptional measures that we are taking during this period of heightened tension, we have removed the Group 'Stop the Steal,' which was creating real-world events... organized around the delegitimization of the election process."
