Summary
President Trump made several allegations during a December 27th call with Acting Attorney General Rosen. Acting Deputy Attorney General Donoghue was conferenced in and said the President was becoming more adamant that they weren't doing their job. President Trump wanted the Department to say the election was corrupt, so he and the Republican Congressmen could exploit the statement in the days leading up to January 6th.
