Supporters watch a video of Trump as they wait for his arrival in Lansing, Michigan. Photo: Getty Images On Tuesday night, President Trump spoke to supporters in Wisconsin, relaying some of the final and most important messages of his campaign to the crucial swing-state voters. “You like the song ‘O Canada,’ right?” he asked. “Yeah. Hockey game. Nice song. ‘O Canada,’ their national anthem. By the way, they stand for their national anthem. Our people have to stand for our national anthem.
Voters who went to his campaign website found a different message. Under doctored banners of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Department of Justice, a lower-case screed read that Trump’s “site was seized” due to“classified information … proving that the trump-gov is involved in the origin of the corona virus.” The missive also claimed that evidence would soon be revealed that proved Trump’s “criminal involvment” with foreign actors interfering in the 2020 election.
Trump campaign spokesman Tim Murtaugh said that the “website was defaced and we are working with law enforcement authorities to investigate the source of the attack,” which lasted for around 30 minutes. According to the New York Times, “cybersecurity experts said that the incident could have been caused by tricking a website administrator into turning over their credentials, in what is known as a phishing attack, or by redirecting the campaign website to the hacker’s own server.
The hack came a little over three months since dozens of major Twitter accounts — including those of Joe Biden and Barack Obama — were compromised in a Bitcoin scam that law enforcement officials allege was orchestrated by a teenager in Florida. Though both actions were shut down quickly and appeared to cause little damage, the two major hacks this election year reveal the prevalence of the threat.

Trump campaign website defaced with message saying Americans 'have no choice' in electionUnknown hackers briefly defaced President Trump’s campaign website on Tuesday night, claiming — without evidence — that they had compromised “multiple devices” and stolen “strictly classified information.” Politico fails to realize that the larger picture of these kinds of attacks is that Politico itself has lost the public's trust. I'm calling it - pee tape released the weekend before Election Day. Trumps lying seems more infectious than Covid -19 amongst his staff.
