Trump to assert voting machine vulnerabilities in Thursday speech

Trump will discuss newly declassified intelligence that officials say shows foreign efforts to influence the 2020 election, alongside top administration officials.

  • On Thursday, President Donald Trump will address the nation regarding newly declassified intelligence on foreign interference in the 2020 election, joined by acting Director of National Intelligence Bill Pulte, Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin, acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, and FBI Director Kash Patel.
  • Steve Bannon, a former White House strategist, predicted the speech will reveal "revelations" about the "administrative state," discussing a task force led by journalist John Solomon and overseen by Pulte to uncover alleged 2020 election fraud.
  • A 2021 U.S. intelligence assessment found no indications that any foreign actor altered "any technical aspect" of the 2020 vote, contradicting Trump's repeated claims that elections are "rigged" by massive fraud.
  • Bannon also advocated for deploying Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents at polling booths during midterms to prevent non-citizen voting, though the White House declined to clarify if this measure is planned.
  • Former Justice Department attorney David Becker expressed skepticism that Trump will present credible evidence, while Jessica Marsden of Protect Democracy warned that ICE raids could suppress turnout among naturalized American citizens.
