NEW: Facebook spokesperson on shutdown of “Stop The Steal” group:
"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.”

“The group was organized around the delegitimization of the election process, and we saw worrying calls for violence from some members of the group."
