The FBI confirmed they are investigating allegations of Iranian cyber agents breaching Donald Trump’s presidential campaign. The Kamala Harris campaign also revealed a failed hack attempt. Trump confirmed Iran hacked his 2024 political operation after Microsoft exposed the intrusion. The FBI is investigating the matter. The Kamala Harris campaign was the target of a “spear phishing” attack, but no security breaches were reported. The White House condemned foreign interference in U.S. elections. Trump mentioned only “publicly available information” was obtained in the hack. News organizations received potentially damaging information regarding Sen. J.D. Vance ahead of his selection as Trump’s running-mate. The Trump campaign spokesman stated that any outlet publishing the documents is aiding America’s enemies. In 2016, Hillary Clinton’s campaign suffered after Russian hackers breached the DNC email servers, which Trump publicly celebrated.
