"The FBI criminal investigation originated from a referral sent by Kurt Olsen, Presidentially appointed Director of Election Security and Integrity, the affidavit said. Mr. Olsen played a central role in Mr. Trump's attempt to overturn the 2020 election, including speaking to the president multiple times on January 6, 2021. He has continued to push false claims about elections, and was recently appointed to a key role in the Trump administration."
"One way or another, the records are coming with us today, one agent said. And the day before that video came out, Trump told Dan Bongino Republicans must nationalize the voting process in order to block crooked Democrat-led states from allowing illegal immigrants to vote, which the president said is going to make it nearly impossible for the GOP to win moving forward."
"The New York Times reported it draws a clearer line between the White House and MAGA election activists who believe the 2020 election was rigged. The Times noted National Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard was present for the raid on January 28. That same report said: [It] is likely to raise more questions about the Trump administration's use of the FBI and Justice Department to revive old, largely disproved claims about the 2020 election in the state, which President Trump narrowly lost."
Kurt Olsen, a former Trump campaign lawyer and Stop the Steal leader, led the referral that launched the FBI criminal investigation into alleged 2020 election fraud in Fulton County, Georgia. The unsealed affidavit identified Olsen as Presidentially appointed Director of Election Security and Integrity and noted his multiple calls with President Trump on January 6, 2021. Bodycam footage captured FBI agents informing Fulton County police they were seizing 2020 ballots. National Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard was present for the January 28 raid. President Trump urged Republicans to nationalize voting, asserting illegal immigrants vote and that Democrats enable such voting.
