时任总统唐纳德·特朗普这位官员将成为代理司法部长，负责调查2020年选举舞弊的虚假指控。文档由众议院监督委员会于周二公布。

特朗普的前助理杰弗里·罗森(Jeffrey Rosen)写给特朗普的电子邮件的主题是“来自波多黎各”(From POTUS)，旨在显示密歇根州对投票机的操纵。

转发给罗森的文件指控密歇根州安特里姆县的选举舞弊——这些指控被证明是虚假的。

这些电子邮件是在12月14日发送的，当天特朗普宣布比尔·巴尔(Bill Barr)将辞去司法部长一职，选举团的选票正在计算中。

巴尔在12月离开前得出结论，没有证据表明选民普遍存在欺诈行为。

巴尔告诉美联社，“迄今为止，我们还没有看到如此大规模的欺诈行为，可能会在选举中造成不同的结果。”

特朗普的助理还从特朗普向时任代理副总检察长的理查德·多诺霍(Richard Donoghue)转交了一份由司法部提交的诉讼草案，指控选民欺诈。多诺霍将诉讼草案转交给了密歇根州西部和东部地区的美国律师。

从未提起诉讼。

在民主党控制的委员会12月30日发布的给罗森的电子邮件中，当时的白宫办公厅主任马克·梅多斯问罗森，“你能让你的团队调查这些不当行为的指控吗?只有所谓的选民欺诈，”他写道。

梅多斯在1月1日的一封带有YouTube视频链接的电子邮件中向罗森兜售的另一种理论是，该委员会称，一名前情报官员指控意大利人以某种方式利用卫星操纵美国的投票选举。

罗森在给代理司法部长多诺霍的一封电子邮件中说，他被要求会见鲁迪·朱利安尼的一位助手布拉德·约翰逊。

罗森写道:“在这条消息之后，我被要求让联邦调查局会见布拉德·约翰逊，我回答说，约翰逊可以打电话或带着他声称拥有的任何证据走进联邦调查局华盛顿办事处。”。“在一次后续电话中，我得知约翰逊正在和鲁迪·朱利安尼合作，他认为我的评论是‘一种侮辱’。”当被问及是否会重新考虑时，我断然拒绝，说我不会给朱利安尼或他的任何“证人”任何特殊待遇，并再次重申我不会和朱利安尼谈论这些。"

多纳休在一封电子邮件中回应道，梅多想要调查的理论是“纯粹的疯狂”。

梅多斯还给当时代理民权部门负责人杰弗里·克拉克发了一封电子邮件，要求他调查佐治亚州富尔顿县所谓的“签名匹配异常”。

“你能相信吗?”罗森在一封转发给多诺霍的邮件中写道。

文件发布还包括库尔特·奥尔森给罗森参谋长约翰·莫兰的一封电子邮件，库尔特·奥尔森曾与得克萨斯州司法部长肯·帕克斯顿共事。帕克斯顿已经提起诉讼，指控选举舞弊。

去年12月，美国最高法院正式结束了德克萨斯州和特朗普的共和党盟友特朗普在最后一刻试图在四个州投出数百万张选票，推翻民主党人乔·拜登的胜利。

在一份未签名的单页命令中，法院驳回了诉讼，理由是缺乏宪法第三条规定的地位。最高法院驳回了这一案件，称德克萨斯州对宾夕法尼亚州、密歇根州、威斯康星州和佐治亚州如何进行自己的选举没有“可认知的兴趣”。

电子邮件中说，“附上一份由美国仿照德克萨斯州行动提出的投诉草案”。“正如我在电话中所说的，美国总统已经看到了这一投诉，他昨晚指示我今天亲自向罗森公司汇报，讨论采取这一行动。”

五月，罗森证明在众议院监督委员会面前，他说在他任职期间，没有对2020年的选举采取任何行动。

“在我任职期间，没有任命任何特别检察官，无论是因为选举舞弊还是其他原因;没有公开声明质疑选举;没有向试图推翻选举结果的国家官员发函;DOJ没有提交任何试图推翻选举结果的法庭诉讼或文件，DOJ唯一一次提交简报是为了寻求驳回戈梅尔特众议员旨在取消选举计数的诉讼，而该诉讼被驳回，正如DOJ所敦促的，”他说。

罗森拒绝了美国广播公司新闻部就周二的电子邮件发布置评的请求。

Trump allies leaned on DOJ to push probes into 2020 election fraud claims

Then-PresidentDonald Trump’s assistant, on his behalf, emailed the official who would become acting attorney general about investigating false claims of 2020 election fraud,documentsreleased by the House Oversight Committee on Tuesday show.

The emails to Jeffrey Rosen, from Trump's former assistant -- with the subject line "From POTUS" -- purport to show manipulation of voting machines in Michigan.

Documents forwarded to Rosen allege election fraud in Antrim County, Michigan – claims that turned out to be false.

The emails were sent on Dec. 14, the day Trump announced Bill Barr would be stepping down as attorney general and as Electoral College votes were being counted.

Barr concluded in December before he left that there was no evidence of widespread voter fraud.

"To date, we have not seen fraud on a scale that could have effected a different outcome in the election," Barr told the Associated Press.

Trump's assistant also forwarded from Trump, to Richard Donoghue, then-acting deputy attorney general, a draft lawsuit, to be filed by the Justice Department, alleging voter fraud. Donoghue forwarded the draft lawsuit to U.S. attorneys in the Western and Eastern District of Michigan.

A lawsuit was never filed.

In a Dec. 30 email to Rosen released by the Democratic-controlled committee, then-White House chief of staff Mark Meadows asks Rosen, "Can you have your team look into these allegations of wrongdoing. Only the alleged voter fraud," he wrote.

Another theory Meadows peddled to Rosen, in a Jan. 1 email with a link to a YouTube video, was an allegation the committee said came from a former intelligence officer that people in Italy had somehow used satellites to manipulate votes in theelection.

Rosen, in an email to acting Attorney General Donoghue, said he was asked to meet with one of Rudy Giuliani’s associates, Brad Johnson.

"After this message, I was asked to have the FBI meet with Brad Johnson, and I responded that Johnson could call or walk into the FBI’s Washington Field Office with any evidence he purports to have," Rosen writes. "On a follow up call, I learned that Johnson is working with Rudy Giuliani who regarded my comments as 'an insult.' Asked if I would reconsidered, I flatly refused, said I would not be giving any special treatment to Giuliani or any of his 'witnesses,' and re-affirming yet again that I will not talk to Giuliani about any of this."

Donahue responded in an email that the theory Meadow wanted investigated was "pure insanity."

Meadows also sent along an email for then-acting Civil Rights Division head Jeffery Clark to look into alleged "signature match anomalies" in Fulton County in Georgia.

"Can you believe this?" Rosen writes in a message forwarded to Donoghue.

The document release also includes an email from Kurt Olsen, who was working with Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, to Rosen’s chief of staff, John Moran. Paxton had already brought a lawsuit alleging election fraud.

The U.S. Supreme Court in December had officially put to rest the 11th-hour attempt by Texas and Trump's Republican allies Trump to throw out millions of votes in four states and overturn Democrat Joe Biden’s victory.

In an unsigned, single-page order, the court rejected the lawsuit, citing a lack of standing under Article III of the Constitution. In dismissing the case, the Supreme Court said Texas had no "cognizable interest" in how Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin and Georgia conduct their own elections.

"Attached is a draft complaint to be brought by the United States modeled after the Texas action," the email says. "As I said on our call, the President of the United States has seen this complaint, and he directed me last night to brief AG Rosen in person today to discuss bringing this action."

In May, Rosentestifiedin front of the House Oversight Committee that during his tenure in the Department no action was taken regarding the 2020 election.

"During my tenure, no special prosecutors were appointed, whether for election fraud or otherwise; no public statements were made questioning the election; no letters were sent to State officials seeking to overturn the election results; no DOJ court actions or filings were submitted seeking to overturn election results, and the only time DOJ did file a brief it was to seek a dismissal of Representative Gohmert’s lawsuit aiming to decertify the electoral count—and that lawsuit was dismissed, as DOJ had urged," he said.

Rosen declined an ABC News request for comment on Tuesday's email release.
