Trump has long argued that the 2020 election was "rigged" or "stolen" after President Joe Biden hit him with 306 votes to Trump's 232 in the 2020 Electoral College.

We have it on notice that there's about to be some kind of dump similar to that. So just be vigilant,'" Zuckerberg told Rogan.

The bureau backed its actions. “The FBI routinely notifies U.S. private sector entities, including social media providers, of potential threat information so that they can decide how to better defend against threats,” the FBI said in a statement.
