The president said in a post on Truth Social that the special prosecutor should probe evidence of alleged fraud.
President Donald Trump on Friday called for a special counsel to investigate the 2020 election results and once more alleged fraud, after the FBI director disclosed this week that the Chinese regime may have conspired to influence the race.
While touting what he said were zero border crossings for the past month, Trump called for the Department of Justice to appoint a special prosecutor and investigate the 2020 election.
“The evidence is MASSIVE and OVERWHELMING. A Special Prosecutor must be appointed. This cannot be allowed to happen again in the United States of America!” he wrote on social media platform Truth Social.
Trump’s post comes after FBI Director Kash Patel said that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) allegedly conspired to mass-produce fabricated driver’s licenses as part of a ballot scheme during the 2020 contest.
“The FBI has located documents which detail alarming allegations related to the 2020 U.S. election, including allegations of interference by the CCP,” Patel said in a June 16 post on social media platform X. “I have immediately declassified the material and turned the documents over to [Chairman] Grassley for further review.” Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) is chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee.

Patel did not provide further details about the allegations surrounding the 2020 presidential election or about the CCP’s alleged interference. Grassley’s office told The Epoch Times in an emailed statement this week that he “is in receipt of an FBI document responsive to a request he made based on legally protected whistleblower disclosures.”
“The document alleges serious national security concerns that need to be fully investigated by the FBI,” said the statement, which also noted that Grassley is seeking further information from the FBI to verify the document’s production.
The intelligence information report originated from the agency’s Albany Field Office and dates back to September 2020, according to his office. Grassley also sent a letter on Tuesday that asked Patel for more information about how the September 2020 intelligence report was handled by the FBI at the time.
Patel also told Just the News earlier this week that the documents and report he provided to Grassley and his committee included “allegations of plans from the CCP to manufacture fake driver’s licenses and ship them into the United States for the purpose of facilitating fraudulent mail-in ballots.”
He suggested that he considers the allegations to be “unsubstantiated” but noted that those claims “were abruptly recalled and never disclosed to the public.”
