Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has launched an investigation into allegations that intelligence agencies concealed evidence of foreign election interference and vulnerabilities during the 2020 election cycle. Newly reviewed memos suggest that concerns involving China and Venezuela may have been deliberately minimized or withheld from President Donald Trump, Congress, and the American public.
Join others crying out to the Lord day and night.
From Just the News:
The National Intelligence Council concluded in 2020 that China had hacked or gained access to several state voter registration databases, but that information was hidden from the American public, state election officials, and Congress. The new memos reviewed by Just the News cite evidence that China may have gained access to between 12 and 18 states’ voter registration databases in 2020 alone, an infiltration far larger than previously acknowledged.
…
The ODNI is currently in possession of allegations made by one or more intelligence officers arguing that foreign interference efforts by China were de-emphasized or omitted entirely from final analytic assessments, kept out of the President’s Daily Brief, or PDB, or hidden from congressional oversight, according to documents reviewed by Just the News. These actions within the IC were taken in an alleged effort to undercut Trump’s 2020 reelection campaign and resist his China-related policies, according to the memos reviewed by Just the News.
…
The memos also point to emails showing alleged attempts by certain CIA officials to cover up election influence efforts by China and to push a CIA analyst to change a federal record about an agency meeting where CIA officials purportedly hinted that China-related evidence was being held back to avoid helping Trump in the 2020 race.
These allegations are reigniting debate over election integrity, government transparency, and the politicization of America’s intelligence agencies. According to the reports, intelligence officials may have possessed evidence for years showing that hostile foreign actors — particularly China — had successfully penetrated sensitive election-related systems in multiple states during the 2020 election cycle.
Although officials say there is currently no evidence that vote-counting machines themselves were directly compromised, the alleged breaches of voter registration databases raise serious national security concerns. The memos indicate that the intelligence community warned as early as January 2020 that adversaries such as China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea possessed the capability to compromise election infrastructure, yet much of that information remained hidden from the public until recent declassifications ordered under Director Gabbard.
The documents also raise troubling allegations of political bias within the intelligence community. According to whistleblower claims and internal reviews, some analysts allegedly downplayed or suppressed evidence of Chinese interference because they disagreed with President Trump’s policies toward China. Former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe previously warned that intelligence analysis regarding China had become politicized, and newly released memos appear to reinforce those concerns.
For many Americans, these revelations deepen fears that powerful federal agencies have been weaponized for political purposes rather than operating with neutrality and integrity. In light of this, let’s pray for safe and secure elections, as well as for both transparency and accountability to be restored in our institutions.
