白宫新闻秘书卡罗琳·利维特回击了媒体对联邦调查局(FBI)搜查佐治亚州富尔顿县与2020年选举相关的选票和其他文件的质疑,此前多年媒体一直声称俄罗斯干预了2016年选举。
今年1月,联邦调查局在佐治亚州亚特兰大的一处县府住宅执行了搜查令,其中包括国家情报总监图尔西·加巴德在现场部署以开展选举安全评估。加巴德的到场引发了民主党人和媒体的愤怒和质疑,他们认为这是不寻常的、带有政治色彩的武力展示。
利维特在谈到加巴德在富尔顿县的出现时表示:”作为国家情报总监,确保美国选举不受外国干预、确保美国选举安全可靠是加巴德女士职责的一部分。国家情报总监办公室正与联邦调查局合作开展这项工作,总统全力支持卡什·帕特尔和图尔西·加巴德,以确保美国选举安全、可靠且不受外国干预。”

记者追问:”有任何迹象表明存在外国影响吗?”
利维特在回答另一个问题之前,转而提醒记者,多年来媒体一直关注俄罗斯干预2016年总统选举的说法,当时是唐纳德·特朗普总统对阵前国务卿希拉里·克林顿。

“请稍等。是媒体多年来声称美国存在俄罗斯干预选举的情况。你们这么说已经很多年了。”利维特回击道。

“在座的各位,考虑到你们多年来一直声称俄罗斯为帮助唐纳德·特朗普干预了2016年选举,你们应该很高兴我们终于有一个政府正在调查此事,我们会很乐意随时向你们通报情况。”她继续说道。

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt hit back at media outlets questioning the FBI’s seizure of ballots and other documents related to the 2020 election in Fulton County, Georgia, after years of the media claiming that Russia influenced the 2016 election.
The FBI executed a search warrant in the Georgia county home to Atlanta in January, which included Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard deploying on the ground to carry out an election security assessment. Gabbard’s presence has sparked outrage and questions from Democrats and the media over what they characterize as an unusual, politicized show of force.
“As the director of national intelligence, it is a part of Miss Gabbard’s role to make sure that American elections are free of foreign interference and that American elections are safe and secure,” Leavitt said of Gabbard’s presence in Fulton County. “And so the ODNI director is working with the FBI on this effort, and the president wholeheartedly supports both Kash Patel and Tulsi Gabbard in ensuring that American elections are safe, secure, and free of foreign intervention.”

The reporter pushed back, “Is there any indication that there’s foreign influence?”
Leavitt began taking another question before circling back to remind the reporter of the media’s focus on claims Russia influenced the 2016 presidential election, when President Donald Trump ran against former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

“Excuse me one second. It’s the media who has said that there’s Russian interference in American elections. You guys have been saying that for many, many years,” Leavitt shot back.

“The people in this room, considering that you all, you all said for many years that Russia interfered in the 2016 election to help Donald Trump, you should all be very happy that we finally have an administration that is looking into that, and we’ll be happy to keep you posted,” she continued.
