Facebook has officially shut down Stop the Steal, a pro-Trump group which had amassed over 364,000 members in less than 48 hours, for promoting election misinformation regarding ongoing vote counts.
With protests over the ongoing tally of votes sweeping through a number of U.S. cities, Facebook tells TIME that it removed the group on Thursday over worrying calls for violence.
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, a Facebook spokesperson said in a statement.

The group, which appeared to be linked to the pro-Trump organization Women for America First as well as the Tea Party, was created in the wake of President Donald Trump falsely claiming that he had defeated Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden during a speech he delivered from the East Room of the White House after 2 a.m. ET on Wednesday morning.
