Hackers threaten Trump

According to the report, the hackers claimed they would release details of emails from Susan Wiles, Chief of Staff at the White House, and Lindsey Halligan, Donald Trump’s lawyer.

The hackers stated that they had obtained around 100 gigabytes of emails from the accounts of Wiles and Halligan, as well as Roger Stone, a longtime Trump advisor, and Stormy Daniels, the adult film actress with whom Trump is accused of having had an affair and paying hush money.

Reuters added that the hackers said they might sell the emails, though they provided no further details.

In May, The Wall Street Journal also reported—citing informed sources—that another data breach had occurred at the White House. This time, hackers reportedly gained access to Susan Wiles' personal contacts and made calls to members of Congress and corporate executives, impersonating her.
