Kurt Olsen, key Trump 2020 election denier, departs Justice Department
Kurt Olsen, a lawyer who worked to challenge the 2020 US election results on behalf of Donald Trump, has left the Justice Department. Olsen had been serving at the department and was known for pursuing election fraud claims that courts repeatedly rejected. His departure is drawing attention from critics of Trump's efforts to overturn the election and from observers tracking political influence inside the department.
Why now: His role in pushing baseless 2020 election fraud claims while at the Justice Department makes his exit politically noteworthy.
