President Donald Trump is set to deliver a primetime speech on Thursday, during which he will reiterate his unsupported claims of election fraud from the 2020 election, which he lost to Joe Biden.The speech will also feature top U.S.intelligence officials, including CIA Director John Ratcliffe and acting Director of National Intelligence Bill Pulte, who has no prior experience in the role.Trump's team aims to leverage newly declassified documents to bolster his long-debunked assertions of election interference.

A 2021 report by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) stated that no foreign adversaries attempted to hack election systems in 2020, though Russia and Iran engaged in disinformation campaigns.

Despite this, Trump's administration has pursued efforts to investigate the 2020 election, including raiding an elections office in Fulton County, Georgia, and issuing executive orders to restrict voting access.These actions come amid expectations of potential losses in the upcoming midterm elections.

The speech marks a continuation of Trump's attempts to undermine the legitimacy of the 2020 election results, despite overwhelming evidence supporting their accuracy.
