“A lawyer who tried to help Donald Trump overturn his 2020 presidential election loss has been in direct contact with Mr. Trump once again as his allies start to lay the groundwork for challenging this year’s election results in key battleground states,” the New York Times reports.
“The lawyer, Kurt Olsen, has spoken to Mr. Trump multiple times in recent weeks, the people said. In 2021, Mr. Olsen spoke to Mr. Trump several times by phone on the day of the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol by a pro-Trump mob, and a federal judge later imposed sanctions on him for filing baseless claims about the midterm elections in Arizona in 2022.”
