So a Trump attorney that aided his 2020 campaign (and wrote a memo encouraging Pence to skip counting electoral votes) was given an "election integrity" job in the administration, where he made a referral to investigate Fulton County. 1/2

BREAKING: The supporting affidavit for the warrant to search Fulton County election records has been unsealed. Read it via @lawfaremedia.org: www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

It rehashes debunked arguments about impropriety in order to establish a predicate for seizing election material — on the basis that mistakes that occurred might have been intentional and therefore criminal. It's all transparently contrived. 2/2

Just to reinforce: The material was seized not by claiming the election was stolen but that ballots were mishandled, which may have been criminal. It's an end run, like saying that there's a national emergency that demands a tariff in response. It's an abuse of power, given the obvious intent here.
