Meadows' involvement in the events leading to Jan 6 isn't up for debate. Our investigation found that, without a doubt, he asked Acting AG Rosen to initiate baseless election fraud investigations on behalf of Trump—and this "Big Lie" helped incite the insurrection.
KEY POINTS ⬇️
.@JudiciaryDems found that from 12/29-1/11, Meadows asked DOJ to:
1) Investigate various discredited claims of election fraud in Georgia that the Trump campaign was unsuccessfully pursuing in court;
2) Investigate false claims of “signature match anomalies” in Fulton County, Georgia, even though Republican state elections officials had made clear “there has been no evidence presented of any issues with the signature matching process.”
3) Investigate a theory known as “Italygate,” promoted by a Rudy Giuliani ally, which held that the CIA and an Italian IT contractor used military satellites to manipulate voting machines and change Trump votes to Biden votes. Meadows also asked DOJ to meet with Giuliani.
4) Investigate a series of claims of election fraud in New Mexico that had been widely refuted and in some cases rejected by the courts, including a claim that Dominion Voting Systems machines caused late-night “vote dumps” for Democratic candidates.

Kash Patel may have committed PERJURY before Congress, per breaking whistleblower reports.
It fits into a pattern of behavior that shows Kash Patel is not fit to be entrusted with government authority.
Here’s how. A THREAD.
JANUARY 29, 2025
DOJ-FBI leadership meet, and notes from that morning meeting read: “KP wants movement at FBI, reciprocal actions for DOJ.”
This was the day before Kash Patel’s confirmation hearing.
At that same meeting, Emil Bove—the Acting Deputy Attorney General—said that he’d received multiple phone calls the night before from Stephen Miller, Trump’s Deputy Chief of Staff.
We know now more than EVER before: The Supreme Court is in an ethical crisis of its own making.
Chief Justice Roberts AND the Judicial Conference refuse to act.
HERE is the news we just broke. A THREAD.
FEDERAL LAW VIOLATION.

FEDERAL LAW VIOLATION.
