Iran-linked hackers threaten to release Trump aides' emails
By Raphael Satter WASHINGTON (Reuters) -Iran-linked hackers have threatened to disclose more emails stolen from U.S. President Donald Trump's circle, after distributing a prior batch to the media ahead of the 2024 U.S. election. In online chats with Reuters on Sunday and Monday, the hackers, who go by the pseudonym Robert, said they had roughly 100 gigabytes of emails from the accounts of White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, Trump lawyer Lindsey Halligan, Trump adviser Roger Stone and porn star-turned-Trump antagonist Stormy Daniels. Robert raised the possibility of selling the material but otherwise did not provide details of their plans. The hackers did not describe the content of the emails. U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi described the intrusion as "an unconscionable cyber-attack." The White House and the FBI responded with a statement from FBI Director Kash Patel, who said: "Anyone associated with any kind of breach of national security will be fully investigated and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law." "This so-called cyber 'attack' is nothing more than digital propaganda, and the targets are no coincidence. This is a calculated smear campaign meant to damage President Trump and discredit honorable public servants who serve our country with distinction," cyberdefense agency CISA said in a post on X. Halligan, Stone and a representative for Daniels did not respond to requests for comment. Iran's mission to the United Nations did not return a message seeking comment. Tehran has in the past denied committing cyberespionage. Robert materialized in the final months of the 2024 presidential campaign, when they claimed to have breached the email accounts of several Trump allies, including Wiles. The hackers then distributed emails to journalists. Reuters previously authenticated some of the leaked material, including an email that appeared to document a financial arrangement between Trump and lawyers representing former presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. - now Trump's health secretary. Other material included Trump campaign communication about Republican office-seekers and discussion of settlement negotiations with Daniels. Although the leaked documents did garner some coverage last year, they did not fundamentally alter the presidential race, which Trump won. The U.S. Justice Department in a September 2024 indictment alleged that Iran's Revolutionary Guards ran the Robert hacking operation. In conversations with Reuters, the hackers declined to address the allegation. After Trump's election, Robert told Reuters that no more leaks were planned. As recently as May, the hackers told Reuters, "I am retired, man." But the group resumed communication after this month's 12-day air war between Israel and Iran, which was capped by U.S. bombing of Iran's nuclear sites. In messages this week, Robert said they were organizing a sale of stolen emails and wanted Reuters to "broadcast this matter." American Enterprise Institute scholar Frederick Kagan, who has written about Iranian cyberespionage, said Tehran suffered serious damage in the conflict and its spies were likely trying to retaliate in ways that did not draw more U.S. or Israeli action. "A default explanation is that everyone's been ordered to use all the asymmetric stuff that they can that's not likely to trigger a resumption of major Israeli/U.S. military activity," he said. "Leaking a bunch more emails is not likely to do that." Despite worries that Tehran could unleash digital havoc, Iran's hackers took a low profile during the conflict. U.S. cyber officials warned on Monday that American companies and critical infrastructure operators might still be in Tehran's crosshairs.

DEA BUSTED!! While Chinese Marijuana Cartels Spread Right Under DEA's Nose, FDA CANNABIS RESEARCH BLOCKED
While Chinese cartels built a marijuana empire across at least six states, MMJ-a Rhode Island-based company with FDA orphan drug status-was left to rot in a bureaucratic black hole engineered by DEA Diversion officials Matthew Strait, Thomas Prevoznik, Anne Milgram and Aarathi Haig. WASHINGTON, D.C. / ACCESS Newswire / July 1, 2025 / Just nine days after MMJ BioPharma Cultivation publicly exposed the DEA's failure to act on sprawling Chinese-backed illegal marijuana grows , the agency finally made headlines launching raids on massive criminal cannabis operations in Oklahoma tied to Chinese nationals. The bust involved over 40,000 plants, firearms, and cartel-style logistics. But this long-overdue enforcement action raises a disturbing question: Why has the DEA prioritized foreign crime syndicates only after years of silence and why is it still blocking a federally-compliant company like MMJ from advancing FDA authorized medical research? DEA Ignored Foreign Criminal Networks Until Publicly Shamed MMJ BioPharma Cultivation warned of DEA inaction over CCP linked marijuana grows on June 18, 2025. Just nine days later, the DEA moved in Oklahoma raiding what officials described as one of the largest criminal marijuana networks in U.S. history. The target: a Chinese syndicate with ties to the United Front Work Department (UFWD), the CCP's global influence arm. 'DEA had time to delay a law-abiding FDA-regulated company, but no time to shut down transnational farms tied to COMMUNIST CHINESE PARTY front groups . That's not just negligence; it's national security malpractice.' - Duane Boise, CEO, MMJ BioPharma Cultivation While Chinese cartels built a marijuana empire across at least six states, MMJ, a Rhode Island-based company with FDA orphan drug status, was left to rot in a bureaucratic black hole engineered by DEA Diversion officials Matthew Strait , Thomas Prevoznik , Anne Milgram , and Aarathi Haig . Science Stifled, Crime Rewarded For over 2,390 days, MMJ has complied with every federal requirement to grow marijuana for clinical trials targeting Huntington's Disease and Multiple Sclerosis. But instead of supporting medical innovation, the DEA: Ignored timelines under its own regulations Forced MMJ into unconstitutional ALJ proceedings Withheld a valid Order to Show Cause remedy Allowed foreign criminal groups to operate unimpeded in the meantime Worse, while MMJ was stalled, Strait and Prevoznik were sent to Dubai on taxpayer money to pose as drug policy 'experts.' Supreme Court: DEA's Legal System Was Illegal In a pair of landmark rulings, Axon v. FTC and Jarkesy v. SEC, the U.S. Supreme Court deemed the DEA's in-house judge system unconstitutional. These were the very proceedings used to sabotage MMJ's progress. The Department of Justice has since abandoned the defense of these cases, leaving DEA Diversion leadership exposed for systemic abuse of power. Florida Hemp Stats Show DEA Failure A study by the Florida Department of Agriculture found: 64% of hemp-derived products were actually illegal marijuana 44% contained toxic pesticides DEA enforcement? Zero. Meanwhile, lab-made THC analogs like Delta-8, HHC, and THC-A are sold on every street corner without oversight, while MMJ's tightly controlled FDA pathway remains blocked. DEA Must Now Face the Real Questions With Matthew Strait quietly retiring under a cloud of scandal and Anne Milgram already gone, pressure mounts on Deputy Administrator Thomas Prevoznik, the architect of the cannabis blockade. Incoming DEA Administrator Terrance Cole has a moment of reckoning: Will he fix the agency or protect its worst actors? MMJ and the Path Forward If the DEA truly wants to reclaim its credibility, it must: Immediately approve MMJ's registration Audit Diversion Control Division corruption End all ALJ hearings on cannabis licensing Transfer cannabis oversight to FDA/NIH Prosecute-not promote-DEA staff who obstructed medical research Final Word The DEA's sudden action on Chinese organized crime proves one thing: they can act when the pressure is real. MMJ's warnings, backed by years of compliance and legal action, helped trigger a long-overdue enforcement response. But busting Chinese gangs isn't enough. It's time the DEA stops being the enemy of American science. Until MMJ BioPharma Cultivation gets the registration it lawfully earned, and patients gain access to cannabinoid therapies they desperately need, the DEA's War on Medical Cannabis continues. MMJ is represented by attorney Megan Sheehan . CONTACT: Madison Hisey [email protected] 203-231-8583 SOURCE: MMJ International Holdings press release
