Trump demands special prosecutor investigate ‘stolen’ 2020 election, loss to Biden

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
President Donald Trump has called for a special prosecutor to be appointed to investigate the 2020 presidential election, which he has long maintained was rigged against him and in favor of Joe Biden.
In a fiery Truth Social post Friday, Trump praised his administration for cutting border crossings to zero in May compared to the Biden administration, which oversaw the release of 62,000 migrants into the country during the same time last year.
Trump said it was incomprehensible a president could oversee such an influx of illegal immigration and then took aim at the 2020 election.

«Zero Border crossings for the month for TRUMP, verses 60,000 for Sleepy, Crooked Joe Biden, a man who lost the 2020 Presidential Election by a «LANDSLIDE!» Trump wrote.
«Biden was grossly incompetent and the 2020 election was a total FRAUD! The evidence is MASSIVE and OVERWHELMING. A Special Prosecutor must be appointed.»
Trump has argued for years that a series of alleged misdeeds led to Joe Biden’s 2020 victory. In the lead-up to the Jan. 6, 2021, certification of the Electoral College results, several pro-Trump marches were held, culminating in a violent riot at the U.S. Capitol.

Trump and his supporters failed to convince Vice President Mike Pence to delay the certification by sending the results back to key battleground states’ legislatures to allow for further investigation or the consideration of alternate slates of electors.
Pence rejected the demands, arguing that the Constitution did not give the vice president authority to decide which electoral votes to count.
Trump and his allies filed dozens of lawsuits challenging the results in various states. Most lawsuits failed due to what judges determined was a lack of standing or insufficient evidence. Biden secured 306 electoral votes with 81.2 million votes compared to Trump’s 232 electoral votes and 74.2 million votes.

RED STATE AG INVESTIGATING MORE THAN 30 POTENTIAL NONCITIZENS WHO VOTED IN 2024 ELECTION
The president has made a variety of claims to support his assertion that the 2020 election was «stolen.»
Trump has argued that ballot harvesting «mules» deposited ballots at late-night ballot drops after deadlines in key swing states.
He made the claims central to his 2024 re-election bid, often using the slogan «too big to rig» to urge supporters to turn out in force and overcome what he described as a rigged or unfair system.
«This cannot be allowed to happen again in the United States of America!» Trump said in the post Friday.
«Let the work begin! What this Crooked man, and his CORRUPT CRONIES, have done to our Country in 4 years, is grossly indescribable! MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!»
Trump’s attorney general in 2020, Bill Barr, said there no was evidence of fraud that could have affected the outcome, and the Department of Homeland Security’s cybersecurity arm pronounced the election «the most secure in American history.»

It was unclear who Trump had in mind for a special prosecutor, but in the event Attorney General Pam Bondi heeds his call, she may face pressure to appoint someone who has already been confirmed by the Senate.
The Justice Department in recent years has appointed a succession of special counsels — sometimes, though not always, plucked from outside the agency — to lead investigations into politically sensitive matters, including conduct by Biden and by Trump.

FBI fires a dozen after Biden-era subpoenas of Patel, Wiles come to light

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
At least a dozen FBI employees were fired amid revelations the bureau under the Biden administration allegedly subpoenaed Kash Patel and Susie Wiles’ phone records in 2022 and 2023 as part of a federal probe into then-former President Donald Trump.
More than 10 FBI employees were fired Wednesday, and at least two more FBI employees were terminated Friday, Fox News has learned.
The FBI allegedly subpoenaed Patel’s and Wiles’ records in 2022 and 2023 while they were private citizens.
Patel now serves as the director of the FBI, and Wiles serves as the White House chief of staff.
The names of the fired bureau employees were not shared due to privacy reasons, and the FBI Agents Association (FBIAA) criticized the firings earlier in the week.

«The FBIAA condemns today’s unlawful termination of FBI special agents, which — like other firings by Director Patel — violates the due process rights of those who risk their lives to protect our country,» the organization said in a statement.
JACK SMITH TRACKED PRIVATE COMMUNICATIONS, CALLS OF NEARLY A DOZEN GOP SENATORS DURING J6 PROBE, FBI SAYS
«These actions weaken the bureau by stripping away critical expertise and destabilizing the workforce, undermining trust in leadership and jeopardizing the Bureau’s ability to meet its recruitment goals, ultimately putting the nation at greater risk.»
Reuters first disclosed the subpoenas, which were issued during the Biden administration while special counsel Jack Smith was investigating Trump’s alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election and his handling of classified documents at Mar-a-Lago, Florida.
Smith ended up charging Trump in 2023 with multiple felony offenses related to alleged efforts to challenge the results of the 2020 election and Trump’s handling of the documents after he left office.

A federal judge later dismissed the election interference case after Smith moved to drop it following Trump’s re-election, citing a Justice Department policy against prosecuting a sitting president.

Smith also dropped the Justice Department’s appeal of a separate ruling that dismissed the classified documents case. Trump has denied any wrongdoing in both matters.
In a statement to Fox News Wednesday, Patel called the move to seize the phone records «outrageous and deeply alarming.»
«It is outrageous and deeply alarming that the previous FBI leadership secretly subpoenaed my own phone records — along with those of now White House chief of staff Susie Wiles — using flimsy pretexts and burying the entire process in prohibited case files designed to evade all oversight,» he said.
The FBI said it discovered the information in the bureau’s newly discovered «prohibited case file.»

Patel also said he recently ended the FBI’s ability to categorize files as «prohibited.»
Fox News also learned from two FBI officials that, in 2023, FBI agents allegedly recorded a phone call between Wiles and her attorney.
According to those officials, Wiles’ attorney was aware the call was being recorded and consented, but Wiles was not informed.
Wiles’ 2023 attorney disputes those claims.
«If I ever pulled a stunt like that I wouldn’t — and shouldn’t — have a license to practice law,» the unidentified attorney said, according to Axios. «I’m as shocked as Susie.»
Smith testified in 2025 that records of members’ calls helped investigators verify the timeline of events surrounding the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.

He said prosecutors «followed all legal requirements in getting those records» and told a House panel the records obtained from lawmakers did not include the content of conversations.
