Plot summary

A conservative commentator investigates the 2020 United States presidential election by examining cell tower location data and official surveillance footage. The film alleges that paid couriers, described as mules, illegally transported batches of mail-in ballots to drop boxes in five closely contested states. It draws on material from an election monitoring organization, True the Vote, and offers two kinds of evidence: a huge set of mobile phone location records that purportedly maps the couriers' routes, and video clips that appear to show multiple ballots being deposited. The host argues that the operation was large enough to have altered the outcome.

Did you know?!Facts and trivia about 2000 Mules (2022)

Can contain spoilers, watch the movie first.

In 2024, Salem Media Group, which helped produce and distribute the film, partially settled a lawsuit from a Georgia man falsely accused of depositing fraudulent ballots, disavowed the film and its companion book, pulled both from distribution and apologized.
Arizona attorney general Mark Brnovich's office referred True the Vote's Catherine Engelbrecht and Gregg Phillips to the FBI and IRS for possible investigation in October 2022, after finding they told his office they were FBI informants while telling the FBI they had given their data to him.
Regnery Publishing abruptly recalled physical copies of the 2000 Mules companion book from stores and delayed the e-book release, citing an unspecified "publishing error"; NPR reported the book named specific nonprofits, several of which threatened legal action.
Georgia's State Election Board subpoenaed True the Vote in April 2022 and sued the group in July 2023, after it refused to disclose the names of people it claimed had collected ballots.
True the Vote board member Gregg Phillips said the film's data analysis took "12 people 16 hours a day for 15 months", but a Mississippi State University spokesman said he knew of no such analysis at its High Performance Computing Collaboratory, where Phillips had taken a public tour and leased office space in a separate building.
