“Overt Interference” is a concept of Abishur Prakash/The Geopolitical Business, Inc.


Foreign interference is nothing new. This is what world powers do to one another.

While many view the 2016 US Presidential Election as “peak” foreign interference, it is the same every election season. In 2008, the US government warned that Chinese hackers had breached the computers of the Obama and McCain campaigns and stole sensitive private emails. In 2024, Iranian hackers broke into the Trump campaign. They stole a 271-page dossier on then-Senator JD Vance, resulting in three Iranian hackers, part of the IRGC, which Trump designated as a terrorist group during his first term, being charged by the US Justice Department.

This has been the state of play—until now.
