Trump's escalating lies and legal battles in Georgia: What you need to know

Former President Donald Trump continues to spread distortions, misinformation, and unfounded conspiracy theories about the 2020 election in an effort to undermine public confidence in the American electoral process. However, multiple reviews, recounts, and investigations have confirmed President Joe Biden's victory. Trump's own administration, including the federal Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency and then-Attorney General William Barr, found no evidence of widespread fraud. Numerous legal challenges brought by the Trump campaign were rejected by courts at both state and federal levels. Claims about voting machines and other alleged factors contributing to election theft have been debunked. An AP investigation found minimal instances of confirmed voter fraud, nowhere near enough to sway the election outcome.
