Trump appointees sought secret hack of voting machine via federal cyber agency

Per Ukrainska Pravda, Trump DHS appointees demanded CISA secretly purchase and hack a voting machine, sending results to the White House and concealing vulnerabilities from the manufacturer. This is an emerging claim from a single source, unverified, but if true it represents a significant deviation from CISA's non-partisan election security role and raises legal and ethical concerns.

Multiple sources claim Trump administration appointees requested a federal cybersecurity agency (CISA) covertly hack a voting machine and report findings to the White House, bypassing standard protocols. This alleged action, if confirmed, would represent an unprecedented breach of institutional norms and CISA's non-partisan role. The execution and outcome of the alleged request remain unconfirmed.
