The Facts

  • Fulton County DA Fani Willis has asked the FBI to conduct a risk assessment and provide protection as her office investigates Trump's alleged interference in the 2020 election.

  • The move comes after Trump called for "the biggest protest we have ever seen.... if these radical, vicious, racist prosecutors do anything wrong or illegal" while speaking at a rally in Texas on Saturday.


The Spin

Pro-Trump narrative

The mainstream media has a history of misrepresenting Trump, while supressing anything that undermines the Democrats' narratives. Trump was not requesting the Georgia election results be tampered with, he was urging the ballots be scrutinized for dishonesty.

Pro-establishment narrative

The former president continues to spin his "Big Lie" about the 2020 presidential election, and try to rewrite his well-documented crimes against democracy, which range from election interference to inciting insurrection. He is now flailing, unable to escape the damning recording of his call with Raffensperger.
