Trump declassifies evidence he says exposes ‘shocking vulnerabilities’ in election system

By Jeff Mordock and Stephen Dinan - The Washington Times - Thursday, July 16, 2026


What to know 
* President Trump claims to have declassified documents revealing election vulnerabilities.
* He says U.S. elections are susceptible to hacking and foreign interference.
* Mr. Trump accuses the intelligence community of hiding this information from Americans.


China has scooped up America’s voter lists, U.S. states’ voter rolls are filled with noncitizens who have managed to register, and Venezuela has tried to develop methods to alter electronic voting machines, President Trump said Thursday in a primetime speech to alert the country to what he called “shocking” vulnerabilities.

He said he was declassifying intelligence documents to back up the claims about foreign governments, including that China had bought, hacked or stolen, Mr. Trump said, some 220 million names of registered voters from states’ rolls.

The
White House also released a Homeland Security Department analysis of U.S. voter lists that identified approximately 278,000 names of noncitizens on states’ voter rolls.

“Our purpose in disclosing this information is not to weaken confidence in elections but to earn that confidence by confronting vulnerabilities and correcting them very, very quickly,” the president said. 

Mr. Trump said evidence that China compromised voter information was actively suppressed and downplayed by members of the “deep state” to prevent him and the American people from knowing about the alleged meddling. The president accused
U.S. intelligence agencies of knowing about the compromised voter registration files in 2020.

“Those responsible for sounding the alarm instead kept the information secret and hidden,” Mr. Trump said. “They did not disclose to me as president or to anyone else, and to the best of our knowledge, they did not inform Congress.”

Mr. Trump said he had ordered the Justice Department to prosecute anyone involved in the cover-up of Chinese efforts to influence the 2020 election, including top CIA and National Security Agency officials.

Trump reveals China stole voter registration data from 220M Americans in primetime speech

President Trump revealed that China stole the voter registration data of 220 million Americans as part of his primetime speech on Thursday.

“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 in remarks from the East Room of the White House.

“That information includes names, addresses, phone numbers, political party preferences, and other sensitive data that would be needed to register to vote and engage in other nefarious activities, which is exactly what was happening,” the president continued. “This data loss presents an unprecedented election security nightmare.

“The intelligence even shows that China assigned a data exploitation unit specifically to this new project.”

Some government officials reportedly knew China stole at least some voter registration data as early as 2020, but didn’t tell the president about it before the election that year, according to the president.

OPINION/EDITORIAL_ JD Vance is wrong to blame Israel for his Iran peace deal’s failure thus far ( Post Editorial Board - NEW YORK POST )

JD Vance is wrong to blame Israel for his Iran peace deal’s failure thus far

By Post Editorial Board
Published July 16, 2026, 6:40 p.m. ET


JD Vance appears on "The Joe Rogan Experience" in a video posted to YouTube on July 15, 2026. YouTube/PowerfulJRE


Vice President JD Vance needs to get his head out of the conspiratorial “rabbit holes” he says he loves to explore and drop the bizarro line he just pitched to Joe Rogan that the Israelis blew up the Iran peace deal because they want “to keep the war going on indefinitely.”

It was Iran that broke the 60-day “comprehensive cease-fire” established by the Memorandum of Understanding by attacking ships in the Strait of Hormuz, period: No Jews involved.

Before the ink was dry on the MOU, which guaranteed open passage through the Strait of Hormuz, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard asserted Tehran’s control and ownership of the waterway and warned that merchant ships must obtain its OK to transit; then it started firing on vessels that didn’t comply.

Blocking sea lanes reopened the war, and
Israel had nothing to do with it.

It’s also preposterous to charge that Jerusalem wants the war to drag on “indefinitely”; it’s always
been clear about its objectives on Iran: destroy its nuclear capability, eviscerate its conventional-war machine; if possible, foster the end of the regime that makes Tehran an enemy of civilization.

Yes, Israel hated the MOU, which was drawn up completely without its involvement — and so left it no way to undermine it, except insofar as Iran claimed that Israeli self-defense against Hezbollah’s attacks from Lebanon somehow broke the truce.

Chinese Regime Asks Thailand to Deport Journalist Who Reports on Corruption

‘The CCP’s transnational repression pursues innocent people around the world,’ the House Select Committee on China says.

Amid a widening anti-graft purge of China’s top ranks, the communist regime has asked Thailand to deport a prominent journalist, whose reporting has exposed corruption in China. 

Bai Zhaodong, a veteran investigative reporter, faces the risk of being sent back to China after the communist regime pressured Bangkok, international NGO Reporters Without Borders and Safeguard Defenders said in a July 15 statement.

The rights advocacy groups called on Bangkok to refrain from doing so, warning that Bai could face detention and torture in China, due to his reporting on corruption within the regime’s top leadership.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt on Thursday said that President Donald Trump’s speech tonight on the integrity of U.S. elections “will shock you.”

Leavitt said she believes media outlets have “refused to acknowledge that tens of millions of Americans across the country share the concerns of this president about the sanctity of our elections.”

The findings that Trump is “going to reveal in this speech … will shock you if you have an honest eye,” the press secretary said, without going further into details about what the speech might entail.

“Everything he is saying will be backed up by facts and by evidence,” Leavitt added.

Commentary

With a whimper rather than a bang, the world has become a different place than it was in January 2021, when Donald Trump left office. Almost everything we are now told about the global status quo is mistaken—largely because critics focus only on what Trump says rather than on what he does.

Rather, the Left—and some on the Right—are furious whenever Trump tweets, says, or does something that offends their delicate sense of taste, tradition, and decorum. Their outrage leads them to ignore whether this “Art of the Deal” theater ultimately leaves the United States stronger. More often than not, it does.

We are not bogged down in a forever war with Iran; we are engaged in over four months of frustrating negotiations with a theocracy that has no intention of giving up its nuclear weapons and ability to bully and undermine most of the Middle East.

Alaska Now Challenging China on Critical Antimony Supply

By Ward Clark | 5:23 PM on July 16, 2026

Antimony is a critical material, used in everything from ammunition to night vision equipment. Until recently, over 90 percent of the world's metallic antimony came from China, Russia, and Tajikistan, but that's changing, thanks to the Trump administration's policy of "Mine, baby, mine" and the Great Land's fantastic mineral wealth.

In the latest development, this being a material critical to national security, $43.4 million Defense Production Act (DPA) has been issued to the Nova Mineral Corporation to boost the development of an
all-Alaskan supply chain for antimony.

Rubio targets the ICC, as he should

By Washington Examiner
Published July 16, 2026 5:00am ET | Updated July 16, 2026 5:32pm ET

The State Department has launched a campaign to dismantle the International Criminal Court. The effort is welcome. The ICC is a clear and present danger to U.S. citizens and the American way of life.

On July 13, the State Department announced a “sweeping campaign” to dismantle the threat the ICC poses to national sovereignty.

Secretary of State
Marco Rubio made the administration’s case, arguing that “the ICC and its allies seek a standing world tribunal with near-unlimited reach, empowered to override the courts and constitutions of the U.S. and other sovereign states, and to prosecute and arrest our citizens.”

Jack Smith spied on me in Congress — this illegal weaponization needs to end

By Elise Stefanik
Published July 15, 2026, 9:26 p.m. ET


Jack Smith's surveillance operation, dubbed Arctic Frost, was part of the obsessive and sustained illegal witch hunt aimed at President Donald Trump, his political allies and his voters, Rep. Elise Stefanik writes.

One year ago, when whistleblowers first revealed that special counsel Jack Smith and the FBI had targeted Republican senators in a highly secretive and unconstitutional spying operation, I immediately picked up the phone and called my close friend and colleague Jim Jordan.

“Jim, there is no way that we weren’t spied on,” I said. “There’s a larger list and my hunch is that we’re both on it.”

Smith’s surveillance operation,
dubbed Arctic Frost, was part of the obsessive and sustained illegal witch hunt aimed at President Donald Trump, his political allies and his voters.

And for years, Rep. Jordan and I had been two of the most outspoken leaders in the House of Representatives against illegal weaponization — going back to our time on the Intelligence Committee, when we served on the defense team during the first illegal impeachment attempt of the president’s first term.

Now, thanks to the great, dogged oversight work of Chairman Chuck Grassley, Sen. Ron Johnson and others, we know that my instinct was right: The sweeping weaponization is wide and deep — and is an attack on the Constitution and the American people.

Meadows to Newsmax: Trump to Address 'Election Integrity'

VIDEO

By Jim Mishler | Wednesday, 15 July 2026 08:15 PM EDT

Former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows told Newsmax that President Donald Trump’s scheduled Thursday evening remarks to the nation will in part focus on "election integrity."

Meadows told
Ed Henry The Big Take on Wednesday that "The president gave a little bit of a tease to the press in the Oval Office as it relates to this primetime address tomorrow night. It'll be interesting just to see how this all comes together."

Meadows said he was not at liberty to reveal much more, other than to say Trump has "kind of given the head nod that it's going to be election integrity. And rumor has it that it will be relating to some of the Georgia election results back in 2020."

Trump is
expected to announce that newly declassified intelligence reports reveal a foreign nation's plans to interfere in the 2020 presidential election.

CIA Director John Ratcliffe, Acting Director of National Intelligence Bill Pulte, FBI Director Kash Patel, and Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin will reportedly join Trump for his remarks.

Reports surfacing late Tuesday
hint that some of the information to be released will point to China’s involvement in attempting to interfere with U.S. elections. 

There is also an indication that Trump may spend some time addressing the U.S.-Israeli military strikes against Iran.

Meadows said Iran is about to learn it has gone too far in testing the President’s resolve.
