Desperate Trump Orders Spy Agencies to Hand Over Secrets to Election Conspiracy Theorist

Donald Trump has instructed U.S. spy agencies to hand over sensitive intelligence to a lawyer who tried to overturn the 2020 election as part of a White House investigation into that year’s race, according to a report.

Kurt Olsen, a former Trump campaign lawyer who worked on the “Stop the Steal” movement, was brought in by the administration in October 2025 to investigate long-debunked claims that Joe Biden’s election victory was the result of widespread voter fraud or other irregularities.

The election denier has been allowed access to sensitive materials as part of his probe into the 2020 election, including compartmented intelligence programs that are among the most highly classified material held by U.S. spy agencies, sources told Politico. It remains unclear whether there are any limits on the intelligence that could be shared with Olsen.
