FBI Raid on Fulton County Election Hub Sparks Concerns Over 2020 Presidential Election
The FBI has conducted a search at the Fulton County election hub, seeking records related to the 2020 presidential election. The move has been described by state officials as "extremely alarming" and is seen as a significant development in the ongoing investigation into former President Donald Trump's attempts to overturn his loss in Georgia.
Trump had repeatedly made false claims about the election being "rigged," with some of these allegations targeting Fulton County, where Biden won by just 11,780 votes. The state's top electoral officials received death threats and were subjected to harassment following these false claims.
In a recent report on Trump's efforts to overturn his election loss, former Special Counsel Jack Smith noted that Fulton County election workers had faced such threats after Trump made baseless claims about the legitimacy of their work.
The FBI search has come at a time when Trump is facing a state criminal case in Fulton County, which was dismissed earlier this year following allegations of conflict of interest. The former president has since sought over $6 million in attorney fees and costs related to that investigation.
Two Georgia election workers, Ruby Freeman and Wandrea "Shaye" Moss, who were falsely accused by Trump allies of participating in voter fraud, have received significant compensation for the harm they suffered at the hands of these false claims.

!! I'm low-key freaking out thinking about all those election workers & how they got harassed after Trump made baseless claims about Fulton County 
Like, can't we just focus on verifying our elections instead of spreading lies? 
And now, Trump is seeking 6 mil in lawyer fees?? 
Like, come on dude, you broke it, pay for it yourself! 
Meanwhile, Ruby & Wandrea got compensation for the harm they suffered 
I hope justice is served & these election workers get the respect they deserve 
... like, can't believe this is happening again, but also kinda expected? I mean, Trump's been making weird claims about elections forever, so it's not like this comes as a total surprise 
. But seriously though, FBI raiding the election hub? That's some serious stuff. I don't know what to think, part of me wants them to catch Trump in another one of his schemes, but at the same time, doesn't he just get tired of getting sued and fined all the time 
... like, can't he just admit he lost already? And what about those two election workers who got bullied by Trump's followers? Like, shouldn't we be more concerned about the people doing the bullying than the 'voter fraud' they're accusing them of?
. I mean, one thing is to question the process, but when you're spreading baseless lies and making people scared – that's just not right. The fact that those election workers were getting death threats and harassment because of Trump's claims is just ridiculous. And now the FBI is raiding the election hub? That's a whole different level of concern 
.
.
. The FBI raid might be a step in the right direction, but we also need to make sure those responsible for spreading false info are held accountable too 
. It's time for us all to come together and support our election workers and officials, they're doing their best under so much pressure 
.
, given Trump's track record of spreading conspiracy theories and lies about elections. I mean, 11,780 votes difference in Georgia? That's not even a blip on the radar for someone who claimed to have won the whole country! And now the FBI is getting involved? This just proves that there was some truth to those claims about Trump trying to steal the election. It's like, come on, Donald, own up to your mistakes already 
. And those two GA election workers, Ruby and Wandrea? They're still getting compensation for the harassment they went through because of Trump's baseless accusations? That's just messed up 
. Anyway, I'm glad the FBI is doing its job, even if it took them a while to get around to searching Fulton County's election hub 
.
this is getting crazy... like what's next?! FBI raiding election hubs everywhere? 
. And can you believe how much money he's trying to make from that one case? $6 million is crazy 
. I'm keeping an eye on this situation...
. and btw, 6 million dollars in lawyer fees? that's wild. i guess when you're used to getting your way through lawsuits, you don't really care about the cost 
.
! The FBI raid on Fulton County is like, what's next? Are we gonna see a "Top Gun" style action movie where agents swoop in to save the day? 
And poor Ruby Freeman and Wandrea Moss, getting compensation for the stress and harassment they faced... talk about a win-win! 
I mean, someone gotta keep Trump in check, right? 
Maybe they'll even make a sequel to "The Lincoln Lawyer" where Trump is the client? 
. And can we talk about how Ruby Freeman and Wandrea "Shaye" Moss got compensated for everything they went through? That's amazing news 
. So, even though this is a tough time, I'm trying to stay positive and see it as an opportunity for growth and justice 
.
they should've never had to go through that. and can we talk about how much money trump is trying to get back in attorney fees? like $6 million? that's insane 
The fact that they're going after these records is just so concerning... what's the FBI looking for exactly? And what does Trump have to hide? 
.
. Those women went through so much stress and harassment because of Trump's false claims, and now they've received compensation for it 
. Can't we just focus on facts and evidence instead of spreading misinformation? 
. The fact that two election workers were targeted and received threats just shows how low people will go when they're wrong
