The FBI is surging resources into what it calls a "priority" investigation related to the 2020 election in Georgia, according to two U.S. officials familiar with the matter, in an extraordinary effort by the nation's most prominent law enforcement agency to find evidence supporting President Donald Trump's darkest election fraud conspiracy theories.
Documents obtained by MS NOW — which the two officials, speaking on condition of anonymity to share internal matters, said were related to the Georgia election investigation — show that FBI leadership is authorizing intelligence analysts to work overtime, including weekends and holidays, on the case. And they show that FBI Director Kash Patel is ordering personnel from all field offices to participate.
"In support of the Director's Office priority effort, the Directorate of Intelligence (DI) and Criminal Division are requesting all FBI field offices to immediately surge support to an FBI Atlanta priority investigation," said an unclassified memo issued Wednesday.
The FBI declined to comment to MS NOW.
The memo went on to detail the number of personnel each field office must contribute, depending on its size, for a total of 260 FBI intelligence officials. The guidance did not include numbers for FBI agents, dozens of whom are also working on the investigation.
Each intelligence analyst would be expected to conduct a total of 708 records checks by July 17, the memo said.
"Overtime (including weekends and holidays) has been authorized," it added.
Asked what analysts would be looking for, one of the officials said, "Looking for derogatory information is the short answer. The idea is to build a case. Look at associations between people, look into their social media, their business activity, travel, contact with other investigative subjects."
In January, the FBI executed a search warrant and seized more than 600 boxes of records relating to the 2020 election from storage in Fulton County, including physical ballots, ballot images, voter rolls and tabulation materials. When the basis for the search warrant was unsealed, it became clear that it relied largely on claims that had previously been debunked, including by Republican-led investigations in Georgia.

They are wasting time and money in order to fluff Trumps fragile ego.
It will never end as long as Trump is alive and in power.
And this after Kash failed to properly disclose a six-figure stock purchase in a company that’s been contracted by the Justice Department. Federal financial records first reviewed by NOTUS showed Patel purchased b etween $100,000 and $250,000 worth of stock in MicroStrategy, a “bitcoin treasury company” that has done millions of dollars in business with the DOJ over the past decade.
Patel then, in the required filing time, failed to disclose the stock purchase in violation of the STOCK Act. Just forgetting about a six-figure stock purchase of a company's stocks that does business with a branch of government he has oversight of isn't just a "Whoopsie!". This is just more evidence of the open grift occurring in our government under Trump and his sycophants are either too stupid or too crazy to care.

And while they rob the bank they get their rabid base convinced they're looking for fantasy voter fraud.
"We'll find it any day now! You people are the smartest, best white people in America so there's no way Trump lost in 2020 and we'll prove it! Okay, now give us a few billion more of your tax dollars so that we can get this work started!"
"But didn't nearly a hundred attempts and lawsuits fail to prove any significant voter fraud and every forensic examination of the 2020 election so far prove beyond a shadow of a doubt Biden won?"
"No! That was never proven! They can't say that because they just haven't given us enough time and access to make up the evidence, I mean gather the evidence..!".
The only fraud in the 2020 election in Georgia was when Trump tried to coerce the Georgia Secretary of State into coming up with 11,780 fake votes. I don't see how he has immunity from that.
