Former President Donald Trump has declassified intelligence documents that he claims prove China stole 220 million voter files and that U.S. intelligence officials covered up the extent of the meddling. The releases also allege broader eLection infrastructure vulnerabilities and the presence of noncitizens on voter rolls, prompting calls for investigations and purges.
In a significant address, former President Donald Trump announced the declassification of a series of intelligence documents that he asserts reveal extensive Chinese interference in U.S. elections and a subsequent cover-up by elements within the U.S. goverment. the documents,published on the official White House website,were presented by his White House Goverment Transparency Task Force and members of the White Residence Intelligence Advisory Board.
Trump claims the evidence shows that beginning during the 2020 election cycle, the People's Republic of China executed what he describes as the largest compromise of election data in history, resulting in the illicit acquisition of 220 million U.S. voter files. He further alleges that a second set of documents exposes a concerted effort by members of the "deep state," including individuals within inteligence agencies, to actively suppress and conceal the fuLl scale of China's meddling from both the president and the American public.
Trump detailed the contents of a CIA writeup he cited, stating that China's policy in 2018 aimed to leverage all domestic and foreign elements opposed to the U.S. president to reduce his vote count and force his resignation or prevent reelection. He added that China was working to influence the 2018 midterms and later the 2020 presidential election.
A separate alleged strategy from mid-2019 focused on undermining domestic confidence in the president, which included using Chinese contacts with major U.S. companies to influence business leaders to turn against him and identifying U.S. journalists who reported negatively on the president to pay them for more critical articles. Furthermore, Trump claimed that raw FBI intelligence from 2020, which he said was buried by "rogue bureaucrats," indicated Chinas activities even included an attempt to manufacture illegal ballots for former President Joe Biden.
Beyond the China-focused allegations, Trump announced that a third set of declassified intelligence community assessments and reports from 2020 to 2026 supports his claim that Americans were "blatantly lied to" about the security of election infrastructure. He quoted an assessment stating that U.S. adversaries,including Russia, China, Iran, North Korea, and nonstate groups, have the capability to compromise U.S. election infrastructure. the document reportedly warns that centralized data repositories like voter registration databases are most vulnerable and could be exploited to disrupt election processes.
Trump also stated that the Department of Homeland Security has identified approximately 278,000 noncitizens registered to vote in federal elections and has ordered DHS to notify every state to remove all ineligible voters immediately. He called on the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, the Department of Justice, the FBI, and the CIA to investigate how the information was hidden, fire those involved in the cover-up, and file criminal charges if appropriate.
Trump emphasized that his purpose in disclosing this information is not to weaken confidence in elections yet to confront vulnerabilities and correct them swiftly, denying that he is making the allegations to create a path to challenge the upcoming November midterm elections
