Fired Election Security Expert Affirms Contact with Special Counsel

Chris Krebs, a top election security official who was fired by President Trump after the 2020 election, has confirmed that he was interviewed by the special counsel investigating Trump's attempts to overturn the election. The special counsel has also asked witnesses about Trump's knowledge of election security, including a meeting where he praised improvements before attacking the systems later. Krebs' firing came after he rejected Trump's claims of widespread fraud and stated that there was no evidence of compromised voting systems.
