Mark Warner Warns Trump Planning a Coordinated Effort to try to Interfere' in the Midterms
"The Nixon era is back. What do I mean? Richard Nixon is most infamously known for Watergate, where he intervened in a domestic political effort under the guise of the Watergate break-in. He knew what was going on before the fact. Well, it appears the same is true. We got testimony yesterday that Tulsi Gabbard was down in Atlanta for that crazy raid on the voting machines because Trump asked her to go."
"How did he let Gabbard know to go there? And then further violate all principles by getting on the phone with the FBI agents who were on the front line of that investigation. This is not how American justice should work. When, when, when will any of my Republican colleagues find a spine? They say they want to stand for rule of law. Right now, they're seeing the abolishment of rule of law for political purposes."
Recent statements urged Republicans to take over elections from the states, prompting concern about a coordinated effort to interfere in upcoming midterms and possibly primaries. A raid in Fulton County, Georgia, resulted in the seizure of ballots and voter information and involved Tulsi Gabbard. Questions emerged about how political actors knew about an impending warrant and whether there was prior coordination to attend the raid. Calls made to FBI agents on the scene and personnel changes at the Bureau raised legal and ethical concerns about politicizing investigations and undermining the rule of law for political purposes.
