Internal FBI Emails Offer Glimpse Into Trump 2020 Election Investigation
Briefly

Recent internal FBI emails released by the Senate Judiciary Committee detail the standard procedures followed during the investigation into Donald Trump's efforts to remain in power after the 2020 election. The correspondence indicates proper bureaucratic steps were taken, contrary to claims of political bias in the agency. One significant email, requesting the opening of the investigation—termed Arctic Frost—was supported by evidence from the lawyers involved in the alleged fake electors scheme, contributing to the special counsel's subsequent indictment of Trump.
The emails reveal that FBI agents conducted standard procedures nearly three years ago when they initiated the investigation into Trump's attempts to overturn the 2020 election.
One email revealed a formal request dated March 22, 2022, to open the probe into Trump, code-named Arctic Frost, backed by evidence from several involved lawyers.
