the twitter feed belongs to the greg phillips.ack on november 11th he tweeted completed analysis of database of 180 million voter registrations. number of non citizen votes exceeds exceeds 3 million. phillips is the found over vote stand, a voter fraud reporter act. i reached out to him on twitter asking for him to provide me the source of his information and any relevant data and he responded no. when do you plan to share and how i asked? his response, as i said from the beginning i'll release the data, analysis and to the public no media spin. he never said when that information will be released. when i asked for an interview he sent me this article calling out trump's claim about millions voting illegally false and writing cnn seems to have already made the decision. >> how greg phillips could possibly verify millions voted illegally just three days after the election is anyone's guess. the washington post reported he started making these claims even before data was available in most jurisdictions. none of that has stopped webs

washington post traced its origins back to greg phillips who tweeted, completed analysis of database of 180 million voter registrations. noncitizen votes exceeds 3 million. consulting legal team. a voter fraud activist phillip has yet to share any of his data. his tweets got picked up by infowar, the website run by conspiracy theorists and a 9/11 truther believes that was an inside job and believes the sandy hook massacre was staged. from there, it went to the top of the drudge report. even drudge was skeptical enough to label it a claim, not a statement, of established fact. good for drudge. think about that trajectory for a moment from a random guy's twitter feed to a pronouncement by the soon to be most powerful person in the world. i'm joined by michael steele, a msnbc political analyst. michael, do you ever worry about what the information inputs into the man who will be president are? >> i think -- yeah. you just kind of look at what the output is, sure. you do concern yourself with where the information is gathered. but this i find very fascinating about all of this and have f
