Iranian hackers swiped Trump data, shared with Biden's team.

According to the FBI, information from former President Donald Trump's campaign was stolen by Iranian hackers and later offered to President Joe Biden's campaign. This attempt at election interference took place back in late June or early July, before Biden had even announced his decision to end his reelection bid. The FBI, along with the Office of the Director of National Intelligence and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, made this announcement on Wednesday.

The hackers reportedly sent unsolicited emails to individuals associated with Biden's campaign, containing stolen and confidential material from Trump's campaign. The three agencies jointly stated that the emails included excerpts from the stolen material as text. However, there is no evidence that Biden's team responded to these inquiries.

Interestingly, this news broke just as Trump was making his way to a rally in Long Island, New York. His campaign was quick to respond, demanding that Biden and his running mate, Kamala Harris, come clean about whether they had used any of the stolen information.

Trump's national press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, was quoted saying, "This is just further proof that the Iranians are actively trying to interfere in the election to help Kamala Harris and Joe Biden. They know that President Trump will continue to stand against their reign of terror and reinstate tough sanctions."

Leavitt went on to call on Biden and Harris to reveal what they knew about the situation and when they knew it. The Harris campaign, on the other hand, acknowledged that a few individuals were targeted with suspicious emails on their personal accounts. However, they stated that they were not aware of any material being sent directly to the campaign.

Morgan Finkelstein, the national security spokesperson for the Harris campaign, told CNN, "We condemn any effort by foreign actors to interfere in US elections, including this unacceptable and malicious activity. We are committed to protecting the integrity of our democracy."
