[Trump Previews Lecture on Declassified Intelligence, Reiterates Allegations of Foreign Interference in 2020 Election] (1) US President Donald Trump plans to deliver a national address at 9 p.m. Eastern Time on Thursday (9:00 p.m. Beijing Time on Friday), in which he will claim that newly declassified intelligence reports show that foreign powers plotted to interfere in the 2020 presidential election. Officials including the CIA Director, Acting Director of National Intelligence, FBI Director, and Secretary of Homeland Security will also be present. (2) Trump previewed the speech earlier that day on Truth Social, but did not specify the content. He lost the 2020 election to Biden and has since continued to falsely claim that the election was "rigged" due to widespread voter fraud. (3) There is currently no reliable evidence that large-scale fraud changed the election results; most of the dozens of lawsuits filed by the Trump campaign in multiple states have been dismissed. Various conspiracy theories continue to circulate around the 2020 election, including the claim that foreign interference was intended to damage Trump's campaign.
