President Donald Trump is expected to claim that declassified intelligence reveals interference in the 2020 election, according to a report by MS NOW carried by CNBC.
Trump announced that he will deliver a “Speech to the Nation on Thursday evening, at 9 P.M. Eastern,” though he did not provide further details about the substance or format of the planned address.
The timing and content of the address remain unclear beyond the scheduled 9 p.m. Eastern slot. Trump’s own statement announcing the speech did not include specifics about what he intends to present.
The claim, as reported by MS NOW, centers on declassified intelligence that Trump is said to believe shows interference in the 2020 election. The sources available do not detail the nature of that intelligence or how it was declassified.
With limited information released ahead of the address, the full scope of the president’s claims is expected to become clearer during the Thursday evening speech itself.
Why it matters
Claims about interference in the 2020 election remain a highly contested topic in American politics, and a prime-time presidential address on the subject could draw significant national attention. The lack of detail released in advance means the specifics of any evidence will only be clear once the speech takes place.
