“We witnessed an attack orchestrated not by antagonists from abroad, but by antagonists within.”
Jelani Cobb explores the rise of misinformation in American politics, detailing how claims of mass voter fraud, like those in 2016 about "3 to 5 million illegal votes," fuel public fear and support for restrictive voting policies. Cobb recounts the failed Electoral Integrity Unit, which identified no significant voter fraud cases, and reflects on how weaponized lies culminated in the Capitol riot. Cobb urges reflection on this landscape of politicized deception.
