STOLEN ELECTION? Trump to address declassified intel revelations about 2020 foreign interference: Report



President Donald Trump announced on Monday that he will be addressing the nation at 9 p.m. ET on Thursday.

A pair of White House officials told MS NOW that in his speech, the president — who will be joined by CIA Director John Ratcliffe, FBI Director Kash Patel, acting Director of National Intelligence Bill Pulte, and Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin — will detail a foreign nation's plans to interfere in the 2020 election.

'These analysts appeared reluctant to have their analysis on China brought forward because they tended to disagree with the [Trump] administration's policies.'

It is presently unclear which nation the president plans to name.

However, the publication of new evidence of foreign interference would further undermine the assessments rushed out by the Biden administration following the geriatric Democrat's inauguration in January 2021.

The Biden DOJ and DHS issued a joint report in March 2021 stating that there were several incidents where Russian, Chinese, and Iranian government-affiliated actors "materially impacted the security of networks associated with or pertaining to U.S. political organizations, candidates, and campaigns during 2020 federal elections."

The report claimed, however, that the DOJ, FBI, and DHS had "no evidence that any foreign government-affiliated actor prevented voting, changed votes, or disrupted the ability to tally votes or to transmit election results in a timely manner; altered any technical aspect of the voting process; or otherwise compromised the integrity of voter registration information of any ballots cast during 2020 federal elections."

The National Intelligence Council also dropped a report in March 2021 casting doubt on foreign interference in the 2020 election, stating, "We have no indications that any foreign actor attempted to alter any technical aspect of the voting process in the 2020 elections, including voter registration, casting ballots, vote tabulation, or reporting results."

The intelligence community report said that:

  • state-linked Russian actors sought to denigrate Biden's candidacy, support Trump, and undermine confidence in the electoral process;
  • Iran "carried out a multi-pronged covert influence campaign intended to undercut former President Trump's re-election prospects"; and
  • additional foreign actors, including Hezbollah and Cuba, "took some steps to attempt to influence the election."

The intelligence community's report downplayed the possibility of attempted interference efforts by China — an assessment that did not age well.

Last year, the FBI uncovered intelligence from August 2020 detailing an alleged Chinese communist plot to rig the 2020 mail-in vote for Biden.

According to an Intelligence Information Report from the FBI's Albany Field Office in September 2020 that Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) claimed was promptly recalled and suppressed by the bureau, a collaborative source obtained information about the alleged plot from a sub-source, "who claimed they obtained the information from unidentified PRC government officials."

The alleged plot involved the Chinese regime's production and export of fraudulent U.S. driver's licenses to Chinese sympathizers in the homeland "in order to create tens of thousands of fraudulent mail-in votes for U.S. presidential candidate Joe Biden."

Patel claimed last year that the allegations had been "substantiated."

U.S. Customs and Border Protection announced on July 27, 2020, that between Jan. 1 and June 30 of that election year, CBP officers at the International Mail Facility at Chicago O'Hare International Airport had seized 1,513 shipments containing fraudulent documents, including 19,888 counterfeit U.S. driver's licenses.

The CBP noted at the time that "the majority of these shipments were arriving from China and Hong Kong" and were mostly intended for college-age students across various states.

The decision to suppress the intelligence report may have been driven by politics.

The intelligence community's then-analytic ombudsman Barry Zulauf indicated in a Jan. 6, 2021, report on a number of election security intelligence issues that "China analysts appeared hesitant to assess Chinese actions as undue influence or interference. These analysts appeared reluctant to have their analysis on China brought forward because they tended to disagree with the [Trump] administration's policies, saying in effect, 'I don't want our intelligence used to support those policies.'"

In addition to possible evidence of a nationwide foreign interference plot, the Trump administration has apparently found evidence that voting machines still have significant vulnerabilities that could be exploited.

The Office of the Director of National Intelligence report detailing these findings has been delayed for months, with some White House officials fearing it could undermine voter confidence, reported Reuters.

'Election interference': FBI silenced internal discussion of Hunter Biden laptop prior to 2020 election



Weeks ahead of the 2020 election, the New York Post dropped a possibly election-altering bombshell report about the discovery and damning contents of Hunter Biden's laptop, which the FBI authenticated nearly one year earlier.

A 2022 poll found that the supermajority of Americans believed that President Donald Trump would have won re-election that election cycle had voters known the Post's report was accurate. Apparently aware that the report could have this kind of impact, the liberal media, social media platforms, a cabal of former intelligence officials, active CIA contractors, and other politically motivated forces worked to discredit and suppress the story.

The FBI was a major player in this campaign to gaslight the American people.

According to chat logs shared by Republicans on the House Committee on the Judiciary, the bureau not only misled social media companies into believing the Post story was Russian disinformation but actively worked to prevent employees from discussing the laptop's authenticity, going so far as to impose a "gag order" regarding discussions of Hunter Biden's laptop.

In chat messages dated Oct. 14, 2020 — the date the Post's story was published — an individual whose name was redacted informs Elvis Chan, the assistant special agent in charge of the San Francisco FBI field office's cyber program, of the "gag order."

— (@)

An October 2024 congressional report released by the House Committee on the Judiciary and the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government identified Chan as the "primary point of contact at the FBI" for the meetings between the bureau and Big Tech that "led to the prebunking of the laptop story in 2020."

When asked, "Anyone discussing that NYPost article on the Biden's?" Chan responds, "Yes we are. c d confirmed an active investigation. no further comment."

'It failed to disclose that it possessed and had authenticated the laptop — a key fact.'

Michael Shellenberger's investigative outfit Public, which first reported on the FBI chat messages, noted that "c d" was likely shorthand for the bureau's Criminal Division.

Chan then asks, "Actually what kind of case is the laptop thing?" adding, "Corruption? campaign financing?"

Another FBI employee whose identity was redacted responds, "CLOSE HOLD —" followed by a blacked-out response.

Chan responds, "oh crap," then notes, "ok. It ends here."

In another series of messages, one FBI employee can be seen telling another, "Nobody on call is is [sic] authorized to comment upon NY Post story," to which another employee responds, "gotta love it."

A bureau insider made clear: "do not discuss biden matter."

— (@)

It is clear from the messages that the FBI was aware of active efforts to discredit the story. One FBI employee noted, for instance, that "twitter is treating [the story] as disinformation."

In the days following the publication of the Post story, the FBI clammed up, refusing to provide censorious social media companies with more details and repeatedly leaning on the response "no comment" as indicated by the newly released chat messages.

The Judiciary report noted that "while the FBI clarified that it had no specific evidence of a Russian hack-and-leak operation [in communications with social media platforms], it failed to disclose that it possessed and had authenticated the laptop — a key fact that likely would have ended any justification for censorship."

The report emphasized that "if the FBI's intent was truly to help social media companies combat actual foreign influence operations, the FBI should have shared the single most important fact: the influence-peddling allegations in the Post story were based off of real, credible information, including information in the FBI's possession. The FBI failed to do so."

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) said in response to the revelations about the gag order, "The FBI's groupchats revealed they were directly involved in election interference," adding, "Where is the outrage?"

"When will there be a criminal investigation?" asked Judicial Watch president Tom Fitton.

Don’t Let Trump’s Decisive Victory Lull You Into A False Sense Of Election Security

The incoming Trump administration must make election integrity a top priority through federal legislation or persuading states to pass reforms.

Trump Proved Rigged Elections Are Winnable. Now It’s Time To Un-Rig Them

The institutions that make elections less free and fair, from the corporate press to corrupt election offices, are weakened but not reformed.

Dems open can of worms by asking about millions of 2020 Biden voters who somehow disappeared in 2024



American citizens who in recent years raised questions about possible voter fraud in the 2020 election were censored, deplatformed, and stigmatized. The results of the 2024 election appear, however, to have vindicated such skeptics, at least in their understanding that there was something anomalous about the number of votes Joe Biden supposedly received.

The official story regarding the 2020 election is that President Donald Trump received 74.2 million votes and Biden received 81.2 million votes — a combined total of over 155 million votes.

According to Decision Desk HQ's latest count, Trump secured over 73.2 million votes in Tuesday's election and Kamala Harris received 68.6 million votes — a combined total of around 141.8 million, with some votes still left to be counted in states such as California. At the time of publication, CNN had the numbers at 72.8 million for Trump and 68.1 million for Harris.

For some sense of historical context, in 2016, Trump secured 62.9 million votes and Hillary Clinton secured 65.8 million votes, and in 2012, former Utah Sen. Mitt Romney netted 60.9 million votes and President Barack Obama secured 65.9 million votes.

Harris' performance, as measured by the popular vote, appears to be more or less in line with Clinton's and Obama's. Biden's supposed result, on the other hand, stands out like a sore thumb.

'Every f***ing time except 2020.'

On Wednesday, Democrats and their allies in the liberal media started asking how they could have record turnout in the 2024 election yet still have Harris net tens of millions fewer voters than Biden did four years ago. By raising this question and in some cases suggesting that Trump must have cheated, Democrats unwittingly prompted renewed concerns among their counterparts about the legitimacy of the previous election.

Zerohedge shared a graph on X comparing the popular vote results in the 2012, 2016, 2020, and 2024 elections, writing, "Sorry to beat a dead horse, but can we go back to what happened here?"

"Yes, let's do go back. American voters want and deserve to know precisely where 81 million 'votes' appeared from and how all the official 2020 evidence collected via courts and states has never been properly analyzed, summarized and presented," wrote Rasmussen Reports. "It's a huge public topic."

BlazeTV contributor T.J. Moe responded, "There is not a single honest person in America, who believes Joe Biden get [sic] 81 million votes. Last night made it clear 2020 was stolen. History will acknowledge this."

Former Republican National Committee spokeswoman Madison Gesiotto Gilbert asked, "Where'd all the Democrats go?"

The glaring discrepancy also caught the eye of last-minute Trump supporter Joe Rogan, who noted on his show after Trump's latest landslide victory, "It's so crazy. You look at it and you go, 'Is this real?'"

Rogan noted that the consensus in the lead-up to the 2024 election was that it was "one of the most consequential elections ever," such that there was some expectation that voters would turn out for Harris in similar numbers as they supposedly had for Biden in 2020.

"Look at the difference in how many people voted for Biden in 2020. It's unprecedented. It's way higher than any other time," said Rogan. "This is what's crazy: They're consistent. Look, they're all like 60 — look at where the number is. It's all like 65 million. ... Every f***ing time except 2020, and in 2020 it goes way the f*** up."

Nathan Hughes of Arkansas, one of the Jan. 6 protesters prosecuted by the Biden-Harris Department of Justice, noted, "Obama got 69M votes. Kamala got 68M votes. But they want us to believe Joe Biden somehow got 81M votes and won, despite losing nearly every bellweather county? They raided our homes and sent us to jail for asking where those extra 13M votes came from."

Hughes speculated, "They couldn't manufacture and pump them into the system like they did during Covid."

When pressed about what might have changed, YouTuber David Freiheit, known under his online pseudonym "Viva Frei," similarly suggested that this time around,

they didn't have limitless ballots like they did in 2020. In 2020 they mailed out ballots to everyone. Changed the rules for indefinite confinement, drop boxes, never did signature matches in Georgia, etc. It was designed to facilitate ballot harvesting so they could just come up with the ballots to meet whatever number was required to win the election. Plus they had the cover of Twitter which was not yet controlled by Elon. And the courts never stepped in like they did this time around.

Some conservatives are hopeful that with a Republican trifecta at the federal level, there will soon be answers and accountability.

"This entire phony thing is getting swept out," the newly liberated Steve Bannon said ahead of Trump's victory speech Wednesday morning. "Biden's getting swept out. Kamala Harris is getting swept out. MSNBC is getting swept out. The Justice Department is getting swept out. The FBI's getting swept out. You people suck, OK? And now you're going to pay the price for trying to destroy this country."

Bannon, who has long complained about alleged election shenanigans in 2020, added, "[Trump] may be empathetic. He may have a kind heart. He may be a good man. But we're not. And you deserve ... not retribution, justice."

The liberal media rushed to reassure the public the 2020 election was legitimate.

The Associated Press — which has done a great deal in recent months to undermine its credibility, particularly with false reports about Israel's defensive war against Hamas, Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio), and Project 2025 — published a "fact-check" Wednesday titled, "FACT FOCUS: A multimillion vote gap between 2020 and 2024 fuels false election narratives."

The AP article stated that "claims of widespread fraud in 2020 have been debunked countless times" and suggested that the final count might greatly narrow the delta between Biden's unprecedented result and Harris' more conventional result.

Once the remainder of the votes are counted and finalized, Americans will have a better sense of exactly how anomalous the 2020 election really was.
