A cyberattack group with suspected ties to Iran is threatening to release a massive trove of emails allegedly stolen from some of President Donald J. Trump’s most trusted advisers—marking the latest foreign attempt to destabilize the White House amid growing tensions in the Middle East.

According to Reuters, the group claims to have exfiltrated 100 gigabytes of email data from figures close to the president, including longtime adviser Roger Stone, White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, and Trump attorney Lindsey Halligan.

The hackers, who are operating under the alias “Robert”, have not provided a release date or confirmed the authenticity of the content. However, they are threatening to leak the stolen data, which reportedly includes correspondence related to Stormy Daniels and communications involving Trump’s health secretary nominee, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) responded swiftly, calling the operation a “calculated smear campaign” designed to “distract, discredit, and divide” the American public ahead of a critical juncture in global affairs.

“A hostile foreign adversary is threatening to illegally exploit purportedly stolen and unverified material,” CISA stated late Monday.

FBI Director Kash Patel echoed the urgency in a statement to Reuters, vowing that “anyone associated with any kind of breach of national security will be fully investigated and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”

The breach comes just weeks after President Trump ordered devastating precision airstrikes on Iran’s Fordow and Natanz nuclear facilities—strikes that Trump says left the sites “totally obliterated.”

“They have guys who go in after the strike, and they said it was total obliteration,” President Trump told reporters at a NATO summit in The Hague this week.

Trump revealed that Israeli agents conducted post-strike inspections and confirmed the destruction. He warned that further U.S. military action would follow if Iran attempted to resume uranium enrichment.

“We may sign an agreement, or we may not,” Trump added. “I don’t care if I have an agreement or not.”

Comparing the Fordow and Natanz strikes to the World War II atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Trump underscored their effectiveness in halting nuclear ambitions.

CIA Director John Ratcliffe confirmed that the operation inflicted long-term damage:

“Several key nuclear facilities were destroyed. Iran’s program will take years to rebuild,” he said, citing high-confidence intelligence.

Meanwhile, most of the legacy media has predictably downplayed the effectiveness of Trump’s airstrike, parroting a leaked “low confidence” DIA assessment and relying on Iranian government propaganda—a tactic Trump supporters are all too familiar with.

The hacking campaign and media spin come as part of a larger, coordinated effort to discredit the president just as he strengthens America’s posture abroad and cleans up the failures of the previous administration's appeasement strategy.

While Tehran denies involvement in the hacking operation, the U.S. Justice Department previously indicted three members of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards Corps in 2024 for attempting to manipulate the presidential election through cyberattacks.

President Trump’s message remains clear: America will not be intimidated by foreign cyber thugs or rogue regimes—and those who threaten national security will be crushed.
