Ken Block, the man who was hired by Donald Trump's campaign to investigate voter fraud claims, told MSNBC on Thursday that he has little doubt that the former president was aware that many of his claims about voter fraud were nonsense.
In talking with MSNBC's "Morning Joe," Block detailed how Trump campaign lawyers asked him to not only look for voter fraud on behalf of the campaign, but also to investigate specific voter fraud claims that were brought to the campaign's attention by third parties.
"Every single claim that I looked at, I was able to prove that those were false claims," said Block, who added that some of the claims he investigated were "really bonkers" and "wild" and easy to disprove.

Later in the discussion, Block was asked about what happened with his findings once he'd concluded his investigations and he said there was little doubt that they had been communicated to Trump in some form.
"I communicated my findings, all of them, to the lawyer that I reported to at the Trump campaign," he said. "That lawyer told the January 6th Committee that he took the totality of my findings to Mark Meadows... Mark Meadows accepted those findings as true. In response to those findings, he said, "I guess there's no there there." He was referring to the voter fraud claims. Mark Meadows, it was reported in the last couple of months, back in April or May of last year, took those findings to the Oval Office."
The bottom line, argued Block is "they had to have known because Mark Meadows certainly knew."
