Ex-DOJ Attorney David Becker on Tulsi Gabbard's Role in Georgia Election Raid

Unusual FBI Raid in Fulton County, Georgia

• 🔍 The execution of a search warrant in Fulton County, Georgia, involved an incredibly unusual presence of the Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard.
• 📞 Gabbard was reportedly on the phone with President Trump while FBI agents raided the election office and seized 700 boxes of voter data and records.
• ⚖️ As a former DOJ attorney, David Becker highlights that DNI Gabbard has no statutory authority to be involved in domestic election investigations or execute search warrants.

Legal Ramifications of DNI Involvement

• 📉 The presence of DNI Gabbard and President Trump during the warrant execution could make the seized evidence extremely difficult to introduce in future legal proceedings.
• 🧑‍⚖️ Defense attorneys would likely call Gabbard to the stand to question her actions, access to evidence, and potential alteration of the chain of custody.
• 🏛️ Fulton County has reportedly filed a challenge in federal district court to contest the validity of the warrant.

Scrutiny of the 2020 Election

• 📊 The 2020 election in Georgia, particularly the paper ballots, underwent unprecedented scrutiny, including multiple recounts and audits, even by hand under bipartisan observation.
• ⏳ A federal statute of limitations for alleged crimes related to the election may have expired, raising further questions about the warrant's timing.

Ecosystem of Election Denial Grift

• 💰 Becker describes an "ecosystem of grift" that profits from spreading lies about the 2020 election, targeting disappointed Trump supporters.
• 🗣️ Despite numerous court cases, including those before Trump-appointed judges, election deniers have consistently failed to present evidence to support their claims.
• 💸 High-profile cases, like those involving Rudy Giuliani, Cydney Powell, and Fox News, resulted in significant liability or settlements, often without presenting evidence.
• ✅ The 2020 election is characterized as one of the great successes of American history, with high turnout during a pandemic, and its integrity has withstood extensive scrutiny.
