Trump’s ‘Stop the Steal’ lawyer pushed for voter fraud evidence from US intelligence agency
Kurt Olsen sought evidence from an intelligence contractor to support false 2020 election fraud claims; contractor focused on vulnerabilities, not proof, and contract ended in October 2025.
- A lawyer tied to the Stop the Steal effort pressed Mojave at several points to broaden its probe into the 2020 election, sources said.
- ODNI contracted Mojave Research Inc., based in Reston, Virginia, to examine Puerto Rico's voting machines removed and checked in May for vulnerabilities, officials said.
- Submitted in July, Mojave's report revealed problems, including with software, but did not produce clear evidence Olsen could use in his 2020 probe.
- The company's ODNI contract ended last October, ODNI said Puerto Rico's machines were `highly vulnerable to exploits`, and an FBI search of a Fulton County, Georgia election center occurred last month.
- The episode raises questions about using intelligence capabilities in domestic politics, as U.S. intelligence agencies are not authorized for such work; Mojave's proposed plan remains unimplemented, and many states use Dominion machines acquired last year by Liberty Vote.
