Take a Look at the Intelligence Documents Trump Declassified on the 2020 Election

President Donald Trump used a prime-time address to the nation Thursday evening to announce the declassification of intelligence documents related to the 2020 election. As Trump began speaking from the East Room, the administration launched a new website titled 'Election Integrity,' publishing document collections covering alleged vulnerabilities in electronic voting systems, China's acquisition of voter information, a Michigan voter-registration investigation and noncitizens appearing on state voter rolls.

The president said that the declassified documents 'show that over a period of years, starting during the 2020 election cycle, the People's Republic of China carried out what is believed to be the largest compromise of election data in history, resulting in China's illicit acquisition of 220 million U.S. voter files.'

Trump said the records had been assembled by the White House Government Transparency Task Force and staff of the President's Intelligence Advisory Board. The president claimed the newly released material showed that members of what he called the 'deep state' inside American intelligence agencies 'worked to actively suppress and downplay information about the extent of China's sinister election meddling.' Trump said that American spy agencies 'began learning about the compromise of voter registration files in 2020,' alleging that information was concealed from both him and the American public.

Ahead of the address, Sen. Bernie Moreno, R-Ohio, said he had received a White House briefing and wrote on X: 'This may be the most important Oval Office address since the Cuban Missile Crisis.'

Trump concluded by calling on Congress to pass the Save America Act: 'Unless you want to cheat, the only reason you wouldn't do it is you want to cheat because your policies are so bad, and your candidates are so pathetic that you can't get away or can't get elected any other way.' Chuck Schumer, the Democratic minority leader, responded: 'Not now. Not ever. The SAVE Act is dead on arrival in the United States Senate.'
