What's this?

The squad is the dem's equivalent of GOP congressmen and women

who baselessly voted to reject the election results in two swing states and instead throw the election to the state legislators to select electors for the state. Both represent extremes of the party. Not sure how many members of "the squad" there are. There are 139 members of the house and 8 senators willing to reject election results.
