The newly released warrant application behind the FBI raid of 2020 election ballots from Fulton County, Georgia is under new scrutiny. A new report reveals the FBI's criminal investigation originated from a referral sent by a “stop the steal” campaign attorney known for “spreading baseless allegations of election fraud.”

The supporting affidavit for the warrant to search Fulton County election records was unsealed Tuesday, publicly revealing the mechanics behind the invasive search and seizure conducted by President Donald Trump’s politicized FBI.

“The FBI criminal investigation originated from a referral sent by Kurt Olsen, presidentially appointed Director of Election Security and Integrity,” stated an attachment to the application for the warrant approved by U.S. District Court magistrate judge Catherine M. Salinas.

Politico revealed that Olsen is also being furnished with "highly classified material" with few limitations, despite Olsen having no intelligence background or experience. Some of the documents he has received from American spy agencies reportedly includes "sensitive compartmented intelligence programs," which are among the most secretive materials held by intelligence agencies. He also reportedly has a direct line to Trump, and exploits those ties whenever agencies push back against his demands for material.

“Every time he hits a roadblock, he just calls POTUS," An anonymous source told Politico.

Social media slammed the news that the same lawyer receiving highly sensitive voter data is also the source of the warrant that delivered the info.

“A beleaguered election denier — who had already been debunked many times — somehow convinced Trump and Bondi and Patel and Gabbard that there was cheating in Georgia when, in fact, it was disproven many times over,” posted one commenter on X. "Poorest Loser Ever."

“So this is basically a rehash of every single conspiracy about the G.A. elections, filed as an affidavit by an FBI agent,” said another critic on X. “They're even bringing back the ‘folded ballots’ thing. Incredible.”

“Kurt Olsen was one of Kari Lake's attorneys when she kept suing to be the Governor of Az. He was charged with making FALSE STATEMENTS TO THE COURT,” posted yet another commenter.

“Basically, the person who issued the warrant has a big f—— red hat on their head right now,” said another.
