Iran Hacked Trump Campaign, Turned Over Stolen Materials To Biden-Harris Campaign

The Islamic Republic of Iran hacked former President Donald Trump’s campaign and turned over the stolen materials to the Biden-Harris campaign, federal officials said in a statement.

Federal officials from ODNI, FBI, and CISA said in a joint statement that Iranian hackers sent the stolen materials to then-Biden-Harris campaign officials in June and July.

Information that the hackers sent to the then-Biden-Harris campaign “contained an excerpt taken from stolen, non-public material from former President Trump’s campaign as text in the emails.”

“This is further proof the Iranians are actively interfering in the election to help Kamala Harris and Joe Biden because they know President Trump will restore his tough sanctions and stand against their reign of terror,” said Karoline Leavitt, Trump Campaign National Press Secretary. “Kamala and Biden must come clean on whether they used the hacked material given to them by the Iranians to hurt President Trump. What did they know and when did they know it?”

Although President Joe Biden dropped out of the presidential race in mid-July after getting crushed by Trump during the presidential debate, many on his campaign were retained by Harris when the campaign was given to her.

The federal officials claimed that there was “currently no information indicating” Biden-Harris officials replied to the emails.

The statement claimed that Iran’s goal was to “stoke discord and undermine confidence in our electoral process,” which is contradicted in part by numerous statements that federal officials have made in recent months about how Iran is specifically trying to stop Trump.

The Harris campaign tried to distance itself from the Biden campaign and claimed that they were “among the intended victims of this foreign influence operation.”

National security officials have warned that Iran is trying to sabotage Trump’s campaign, Iran hacked Trump’s campaign and gave the information to news organizations, and Iran has attempted to assassinate Trump.

Fibis I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
