BREAKING: Trump Media to sell "faster access" to President Trump's Truth Social posts, which will let traders and investors pay for real-time feed of Truth Social posts.
U.S. intelligence assessments found no evidence that any foreign actor altered votes or election infrastructure in the 2020 election.
They did conclude Russia conducted influence operations to undermine Biden, boost Trump, and erode confidence in the election, but vote counts were unaffected.
The assessment was based on an investigation conducted during Trump's presidency, overseen by his own appointees. Trump received a classified preliminary version of this same report before leaving office.
For anyone interested in doing their own research before Trump’s speech tonight… you can read the full declassified report on foreign threats to the 2020 election here. There was NO foreign interference in the 2020 election.

In case the President needs a refresher — we went to court against him and his allies 43 times in 2020 to defend our free and fair elections.
He went 0-43.
We're going to keep protecting our democracy –– and we will never let Donald Trump succeed in undermining the will of the people here in Pennsylvania.
The government just spent $1.5 billion of your money buying two immigration prisons from CoreCivic, including Otay Mesa in San Diego. The company walks away with over a billion. And per ABC News, Trump owns CoreCivic stock.
He holds shares in the company his own administration just enriched. A president should never profit from a choice his government makes.
Totally corrupt.
Tonight, Trump will claim that the intelligence community conspired to conceal from him information about China’s efforts in the 2020 election.
Except that the Intelligence Community Assessment was compiled under Director John Ratcliffe and briefed to him on 1/7/21.
EX PARDON ATTORNEY CALLS BLANCHE A LIAR: “2 days after Mr. Blanche was confirmed as Deputy A.G., he fired me. I declined to rubber stamp a political favor for Trump's friend and it cost me my job. He sent 🇺🇸 Marshals to my home to prevent me from speaking with Congress.”
New reporting reveals the Trump administration moved original copies of the Emancipation Proclamation and 13th Amendment into defective storage cases, exposing the rare documents to harsh light and heat.
