Trump's DOJ Investigating Iran
FBI Now Involved in Case
A criminal investigation has been opened by the US Department of Justice into alleged election interference by Iran, and now the FBI is also involved in the case.
Investigators claim that a group of Iranian operatives attempted to intimidate US voters online by sending threatening emails to Democratic voters. The emails were allegedly sent from an Iranian server and contained information about the voters that could only have been obtained through hacking.
The investigation is still ongoing, but the US government has already taken steps to counter the alleged interference. The Treasury Department has sanctioned several Iranian individuals and entities believed to be involved in the plot.
The Justice Department is investigating whether Iran violated US campaign finance laws by attempting to influence the election. Criminal charges could be filed if the investigation finds evidence of wrongdoing.
The FBI is also assisting in the investigation by providing technical support and resources. The FBI has a long history of investigating foreign interference in US elections, and its involvement in this case is a sign that the government takes the threat of election interference very seriously.
The investigation is a major development in the ongoing saga of foreign interference in US elections. The US government is determined to protect the integrity of its elections, and it is committed to investigating and prosecuting any individuals or entities that attempt to interfere in the democratic process.
