Trump’s 270-Page Dossier of JD Vance’s ‘Vulnerabilities’ Hacked by Iran
The Trump campaign accused Iran of being behind a hack and leak operation Saturday, after a 270-page dossier of JD Vance's "vulnerabilities" was sent to a news organization.
The file was sent to Politico from an AOL.com email address along with one on Marco Rubio, the Florida senator who did not get selected to be Donald Trump's running mate.
Hours after Politico revealed it had been sent the materials, the Trump campaign said it had been hacked and pointed the finger at Iran.
“The Iranians know that President Trump will stop their reign of terror just like he did in his first four years in the White House. Any media or news outlet reprinting documents or internal communications are doing the bidding of America’s enemies and doing exactly what they want,” Trump spokesman Steven Cheung told NBC News.
He went on: “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.”
