Trump will be joined by officials including CIA Director John Ratcliffe, acting Director of National Intelligence Bill Pulte, FBI Director Kash Patel and Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin, according to one of the officials, who were granted anonymity to discuss the internal plans, MS NOW reported.
Trump earlier Monday afternoon announced on Truth Social that he “will be making a Speech to the Nation on Thursday evening, at 9 P.M. Eastern,” without providing further details.
Trump lost the 2020 race to President Joe Biden, but falsely claimed that his defeat was due to widespread voter fraud. He continues to frequently claim that that race and others are “rigged.” No credible evidence has presented that widespread fraud affected the outcome of the 2020 contest; Trump and his allies brought dozens of court cases challenging the 2020 results in multiple states, but they were overwhelmingly rejected.
Numerous conspiracy theories persist surrounding the 2020 election, including several that allege foreign nations interfered to harm Trump’s candidacy.
