Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said Sunday that the Department of Justice is actively investigating allegations of wrongdoing tied to the 2020 presidential election and promised that any findings uncovered by federal investigators would eventually be made public.
During an appearance on Fox News Channel’s “Sunday Morning Futures,” host Maria Bartiromo referenced comments from White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles suggesting that evidence may emerge showing President Donald Trump actually carried certain states in the 2020 race.
“So, [White House chief of staff Susie Wiles] just said that we’re going to find out that President Trump actually did win certain states in the 2020 election,” Bartiromo said. “Now, the president says all the time that the election was rigged. What have you done about that? Do you have any evidence that the election was rigged? What can you tell us?”
Blanche responded by claiming there is already substantial evidence supporting concerns about the election.
“Well, there’s a ton of evidence that the election was rigged. That’s not something the DOJ needs to tell you about. There’s been evidence about that for many, many years. What I can tell you is that we have multiple investigations going on in Arizona, in Georgia, in Fulton County, Georgia. And that’s exactly what we’re looking at, is, we’re — by the way, this is very difficult, because they’re very good. They’re very good at hiding up misconduct and hiding what they’re doing. And so that’s why we’re very focused on finding out whether the right people voted, whether people who were supposed to vote voted, whether there was one vote cast per voter. And that’s what we’re doing in multiple states. And I expect — and, again, people — you will say to me, how long is it taking? Why is it taking so long?”
The acting attorney general acknowledged that the investigations are taking significant time, saying investigators are relying on traditional law enforcement methods to examine what occurred during the election.
“And the reality of the answer to that is because it takes a lot of work to uncover what happened in 2020,” he continued. “It takes a lot of old, good old-fashioned law enforcement, police work, which is what we’re doing. And we have great prosecutors working on it as well. And I expect that — and I assure you, I assure the American people that as soon as we have something to say for it, whether it’s charges, whether it’s a report, whether it’s the results of an investigation, the American people will learn about what we uncovered.”
