Former Pres. Trump Wanted To Seize Voting Machines After Election

Meanwhile, documents about Jan. 6 were torn up, with some damaged beyond repair.

After losing the 2020 election, former President Donald Trump asked his lawyer Rudy Giuliani to inquire with both the Department of Homeland Security and the Pentagon about seizing voting machines in key battleground states, according to the New York Times.

Though that ultimately did not happen, Jan. 6 committee members and Democrats and Republicans, like Rep. Adam Kinzinger and Rep. Liz Cheney, getting to the bottom of the issue are wondering what would've happened if it did.

This comes as Trump is considering his own political future and another potential run for the White House.
