from The National Pulse:
Former President Donald Trump’s campaign has reported a hacking incident involving some of its high-level communications. The campaign attributed the breach to “foreign sources hostile to the United States” and referred to a recent Microsoft report on a hacking attempt by Iranian actors targeting a high-ranking official within a presidential campaign. POLITICO revealed that it had received emails from an anonymous source containing internal documents from Trump’s operation after a senior, unnamed campaign official fell victim to a phishing e-mail.
One of the documents sent to major media outlets since the hack appears to be an early, internal vetting document of Vice Presidential nominee J.D. Vance stretching to almost 300 pages of effective oppo research. The messages are being sent by a person using an AOL email account, identifying themselves only as “Robert.”

The news comes as tensions with Iran have risen in recent months, with Biden-Harris employees in close connection with the Persian regime. In recent weeks, a Pakistani with Iranian connections was arrested in connection with another assassination plot against President Trump. Anti-war activists have been skeptical of the saber-rattling and fast attribution of criminal activities in the United States to Iran, fearing another march to war.
Microsoft released a report on Friday indicating that Iranian hackers had compromised the account of a high-ranking official within a U.S. presidential campaign in June 2024.
In related findings released by Microsoft, researchers discovered several Iranian groups engaged in spreading polarizing messages and inflammatory posts about politically divisive issues. The company disclosed that these cybercriminals have been operating covert news sites targeting voter groups from opposite ends of the political spectrum, furthering societal division.
“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,” Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung said. “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.”
