In an effort to "sow discord and shape the outcome of U.S. elections", Iranian cyber actors sent messages during the summer to people involved in President Biden's then re-election campaign containing stolen material from former President Trump's campaign, U.S. agencies said.

"Iranian malicious cyber actors in late June and early July sent unsolicited emails to individuals then associated with President Biden’s campaign that contained an excerpt taken from stolen, non-public material from former President Trump’s campaign as text in the emails," the FBI, Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency and Office of the Director of National Intelligence said in a joint statement on Wednesday.

The agencies noted that there is currently no information indicating if recipients replied to the messages.

The U.S. intelligence agencies also alleged that Iran has continued their election interference since June and has sent stolen Trump campaign material to U.S. media organizations.

Trump: "Three agencies of the Kamala Harris and Joe Biden administration – the FBI, the office of the Director of National Intelligence and Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency – they just released a report, confirm that Iran actors hacked into the Trump campaign's email accounts and, in turn, sought to give the hacked material to the Biden-Harris campaign. They gave them all of the materials because Biden is working with Iran, and Iran doesn't exactly like me because they were ready to make a deal."

The Biden-Kamala gang wants to have it both ways, as usual.

Not that they were actually fixing the election or anything. It was just to “sow discord.” Right.

[Rennes Templar]

Smart move by Iran. They know they could do anything they want with Camel-ahh.

[coloradan]

This was probably a deep state op. Benefit Dems, harm Trump, and get MAGA people to hate Iran. Has CIA written all over it.

[vivenne]

So Biden and KH took the information and used it?

[ding_dong_daddy_from_dumas]

They are not going to admit it, but why wouldn’t they use it?

How long has this really been going on? Obama and Joe paid them a crapload of money. I always wondered what they got in return.

[ding_dong_daddy_from_dumas]

I don’t think Trump paid Assange for the Hillary leaks. Iran got money from Biden and Obama, but maybe it wasn’t quid pro quo exactly.

Hard to find something you’re not looking for.

Jesse Watters reported the Dems already used the info they received from Iran.

I can believe that. What does "used the info" mean? Just reading the text of the leaks is probably useful.

[AnthonySoprano]

Probably used it by leaking the info to their favorite outlets, or the DNC.

Some of the info stolen was vetting of Trump VP candidates

[Telepathic Intruder]

Which means the Biden administration is working directly with Iran. But Congress will do nothing, of course.

[NoLibZone]

But wait, Iran is allied with Russia!

"I don’t think Trump paid Assange for the Hillary leaks."

I never heard that claim before. I'm surprised the swamp didn't use that claim to indict him for that too.
