Former President Trump's campaign confirmed to Fox News on Saturday that some of its internal communications were hacked.
Liberal media outlet Politico had reached out to the campaign after the news outlet started receiving internal Trump documents.
"These documents were obtained illegally from foreign sources hostile to the United States, intended to interfere with the 2024 election and sow chaos throughout our Democratic process," said Steven Cheung, communications director for the Trump campaign.
"On Friday, a new report from Microsoft found that Iranian hackers broke into the account of a ‘high ranking official’ on the U.S. presidential campaign in June 2024, which coincides with the close timing of President Trump’s selection of a Vice Presidential nominee," he added.
I don't know how they know it was Iran.
I don't know how they know it was Iran. I'd be thinking it was more likely to be a hack coming from the Democrats.

Iran. Iran. Iran.
I seem to remember an event 8 years ago when Trump told Russia to hack Hillary and it happened less than 24 hours later.
Long story short, why should anyone care when the hack on Hillary was brushed off by Trump and his supporters?
The Biden administration’s now-suspended Iran envoy Robert Malley helped to fund, support, and direct an Iranian intelligence operation designed to influence the United States and allied governments, according to a trove of purloined Iranian government emails.

They've already linked Iran to the Assassination plot on Trump so yeah it was likely them that hacked his campaign .
Under the orders of people on the Left of course.

They are scared coz Trump won't keep giving them money and he won't ignore oil sanctions,but will help Israel properly,and will try to prevent Iran getting nukes.
The Ayotollahs are team Harris all the way coz she will let the money flow,be less helpful to Israel and practicaly guarantee a nuclear armed Iran.
Which will be catastrophic for the middle east IMO.

Now, in context, we should note that Trump did not specifically ask Russians to hack Clinton campaign officials, which is what they ended up doing. He was referring to emails from her time as secretary of state that were wiped from the private server where she kept them.
The FEC asserts in the letter that Clinton and the DNC violated strict rules when they mislabeled payments that were sent to Fusion GPS, the consulting firm that commissioned the now-debunked dossier via their law firm.
The law firm Perkins Coie was paid $1,024,407.9 by the two entities for the dossier. Clinton’s campaign and the DNC claimed the expenditures were for legal services, failing to mention it was actually for opposition research. The DNC forked over $849,407.97 while the Clinton campaign paid $175,000, according to the Washington Examiner.

Sounds like this may not be the only leak coming. White supremacist and dinner guest of Trump, Nick Fuentes is planning on going to war with Trump's campaign tomorrow unless Trump caters his campaign to Fuentes' followers. Apparently there's emails he'll be releasing.
If he's able to release emails showing Trump's campaign was actively trying to court him despite knowing his beliefs, that's gotta be the end of Trump's campaign, right?
