An FBI raid occurred at the Fulton County, Georgia election headquarters on Wednesday, seeking ballots from the 2020 election. This action follows former President Trump's continued false claims of widespread fraud in the 2020 election and his recent suggestion of imminent charges related to the election. Critics, like UCLA law professor Rick Hasen, argue Trump is using the FBI to pursue his obsession with the 2020 election and transforming the federal government into a tool for personal vengeance. Senator Jon Ossoff, a Georgia Democrat, compared the search to other actions and stated that Trump is wielding federal law enforcement as an unaccountable instrument of personal power and revenge.
