国家情报总监图尔西·嘉巴德上周安排总统唐纳德·特朗普与在佐治亚州富尔顿县选举办公室进行争议性搜查的FBI探员进行了通话，两名知情人士向CNN透露。
这项不寻常的通话——《纽约时报》首先报道——凸显了特朗普对2020年选举涉嫌选民欺诈调查的关注。一名消息人士称，特朗普指示嘉巴德前往亚特兰大参与此次搜查。
消息人士称，嘉巴德在搜查后的第二天与探员会面，期间她致电特朗普汇报，并询问是否想与探员交谈。总统同意后并对探员进行了简短的“鼓劲讲话”，一名消息人士称，对话仅限于此并未涉及更多内容。
特朗普呼吁共和党“全国化投票”
特朗普毫不掩饰自己认为2020年赢得佐治亚州的主张（尽管实际未赢），并希望政府调整选举程序以遏制他所谓的“猖獗欺诈”。在周一接受前FBI副局长丹·博尼诺采访时，特朗普再次虚假声称过去选举结果存在错误，并呼吁共和党人“将投票‘全国化’”。
“共和党人应该说，我们要接管，我们应该接管投票，至少在15个地方。共和党人应该将投票‘全国化’，”总统说道。
“我们有一些州非常腐败，还在计票。我们有一些州我赢了，但结果显示我没赢。现在你们会在佐治亚州看到一些有趣的事情——他们通过法院命令拿到了选票，会有一些有趣的东西浮出水面。”他补充道。
FBI拒绝置评，司法部否认特朗普参与
FBI拒绝就此次通话及嘉巴德在富尔顿县的角色置评。CNN已联系白宫和嘉巴德办公室寻求置评。司法部副部长托德·布兰奇（Todd Blanche）周末对CNN记者达娜·巴什表示，据他所知，特朗普并未参与富尔顿县的搜查行动。
“我不认为他参与其中，”布兰奇称，“这是一项刑事大陪审团调查，除了您刚才所说的，我无法进一步评论。”
当被问及特朗普称自己了解此案的言论时，布兰奇回应称：“我不知道总统是否被通报过情况。我之前所说的是，这是一项刑事调查，根据法律要求，它必须严格保密。这是大陪审团调查。”
但在周一晚间福克斯新闻中，布兰奇表示对特朗普与参与搜查的FBI探员交谈并无异议。
“总统一周都会与执法部门交谈。他与努力工作的探员交流并不让我感到意外，实际上我很支持。这很棒，”布兰奇称。
富尔顿县官员质疑搜查合法性，嘉巴德未出席会议
周三FBI探员执行搜查令后，图尔西·嘉巴德被发现出现在现场，当时他们搜查了亚特兰大附近的富尔顿县选举办公室，取走了700箱选举材料。据当时熟悉此事的消息人士向CNN透露，此次搜查与司法部试图获取投票数据并调查该县所谓的欺诈行为有关。此后，富尔顿县一名官员宣布，该县将挑战FBI搜查和扣押2020年选举记录的合法性。布兰奇称他不清楚嘉巴德为何在场。
“我不知道总监为何会在那里，”布兰奇表示，“她并未参与大陪审团调查，但她确实是我们选举完整性工作的关键部分，确保选举自由公正。她在这方面是专家，这也是她和她的团队日常工作的重要内容。”
嘉巴德聚焦“选举诚信”，白宫称分工明确
嘉巴德近几个月在推动特朗普的选举诚信优先事项方面开辟了自己的工作领域，在经历初期的波折后，提升了自己在政府和特朗普阵营中的地位。
政府内部人士透露，嘉巴德与中央情报局（CIA）局长约翰·拉特克利夫关系紧张，“这种紧张关系已得到缓和，现在他们能良好合作，但这也是图尔西专注于选举诚信的原因”，一名高级白宫官员向CNN表示。该官员补充称，这样的分工有助于让每位高层官员拥有不同的工作重点领域。
在富尔顿县之行后，嘉巴德原计划周五在华盛顿特区参加一个选举官员会议。两党选举官员均希望特朗普政府有人能解释政府在富尔顿县的行动。但据会议发言人称，由于“日程冲突”，嘉巴德最终未能出席。

United States Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard speaks on the phone while standing inside a vehicle loaded with boxes outside the Fulton County Election Hub and Operation Center after the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) executed a search warrant there in relation to the 2020 election, according to a law enforcement official familiar with the matter, in Union City, Georgia, U.S. January 28, 2026.

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard put President Donald Trump on the phone with some of the FBI agents who had conducted a controversial search of an elections office in Fulton County, Georgia, last week, two sources familiar with the call told CNN.
The unusual call — first reported by The New York Times — underscores Trump’s involvement and interest in the probe of alleged voter fraud in the 2020 election. One source said Trump directed Gabbard to go to Atlanta for the search.
Gabbard met with the agents the day after the search, sources said, and during the meeting, Gabbard called Trump to check-in and asked if he wanted to talk to the agents. The president agreed and gave the agents a brief “pep talk,” one of the sources said, insisting the conversation did not go beyond that.

Trump has made no secret of his belief that he won Georgia in 2020 — though he did not — and of his desire for his government to adjust election procedures to police what he sees as rampant fraud. In an interview airing Monday with Dan Bongino, the former deputy director of the FBI, Trump called on Republicans to “nationalize the voting” as he again falsely claimed errors in past election results. Democratic election officials have been bracing for potential federal government intrusion in the midterms.
“The Republicans should say, we want to take over, we should take over the voting, the voting in at least many, 15 places. The Republicans ought to nationalize the voting,” the president said.
“We have states that are so crooked and they’re counting votes. We have states that I won, that show I didn’t win. Now you’re going to see something in Georgia where they were able to get with a court order, the ballots, you’re going to see some interesting things come out,” he added.

The FBI declined to comment on the call and Gabbard’s role in Fulton County. CNN has reached out to the White House and Gabbard’s office for comment. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche told CNN’s Dana Bash this weekend that to his knowledge, Trump did not play a role in the Fulton search.
“I don’t believe he was involved,” Blanche said. “This is a criminal grand jury investigation, and I can’t comment on it beyond what you just said.”
Asked later about comments from Trump suggesting he had knowledge of the case, Blanche responded: “I’m not around when the president’s briefed or not briefed. What I said is that this is a criminal investigation, so it’s a tightly held, as it must be under the law. It’s a grand jury investigation.”
But on Fox News Monday night, Blanche signaled he had no problem with Trump talking to the FBI agents who were involved.
“The president talks to law enforcement all week long. The fact that he talked with agents working hard doesn’t surprise me and actually I love it. It’s great,” Blanche said.

Gabbard had been spotted on the scene Wednesday after FBI agents executed a search warrant for the Fulton County elections office, near Atlanta, taking 700 boxes of election materials. The search was related to an effort by the Justice Department to seize voting data and search for alleged fraud in the county, a source familiar with the matter told CNN at the time. An official in Fulton County has since announced the county will challenge the legality of the FBI’s search and seizure of 2020 election records. Blanche told CNN he did not know why Gabbard was present.
“I don’t know why the director was there,” Blanche said. “She is not part of the grand jury investigation, but she is for sure a key part of our efforts at election integrity and making sure that we have free and fair elections. She’s an expert in that space and it’s a big part of what she and her team look at every day.”

Gabbard has carved out a lane for herself pursuing Trump’s election integrity priorities in recent months, boosting her standing within the administration and Trump after a rocky start.
It is well known within the administration that Gabbard and John Ratcliffe, the director of the Central Intelligence Agency, have had a fraught relationship
“That’s been smoothed over, and they work together fine now, but it’s also why Tulsi has focused her efforts on election integrity,” a senior White House official told CNN. The official added that it helps give each of the top officials a different lane of focus.
After her Fulton County trip, Gabbard was slated to address a conference of election officials on Friday in Washington, DC. Election officials from both parties had hoped someone from the Trump administration would explain what the administration was doing in Fulton County. But Gabbard ultimately did not attend due to what a conference spokesperson said were “scheduling conflicts.”
