White House, Clinton Tied To PR Firm Behind Electoral College Push

The public relations firm working behind the scenes with the faithless electors is rife with ties to prominent Democrats like President Obama and twice-failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.

Megaphone Strategies, whose stated mission is to use PR as a tool to diversify progressive movements, typically works with progressive causes like Black Lives Matter. The firm is representing the handful of faithless electors trying to keep President-elect Donald Trump from winning the Electoral College vote.

The firm was co-founded by Van Jones, the former green jobs czar in the Obama White House who later resigned after it was revealed he signed a statement questioning whether the Bush administration had a role in the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. Jones now works as a CNN commentator.

Molly Haigh, Megaphone's co-founder and president, worked for Barack Obama's 2008 presidential campaign. Haigh blames the Republican party's racist, misogynist, xenophobic fear mongering for Trump's rise to power.
