Cracking the Code: Election Fraud, Cyber Attacks, and AI Insights
Hi there, Protectors Podcast listeners! This is Mark Solomon, and I’m especially excited about today’s episode because our guest is someone I’m lucky enough to call my brother—John Solomon. Many of you know John as a nationally renowned investigative journalist and the founder of “Just the News” and the “John Solomon Reports” podcast. He has spent more than 30 years as an investigative journalist and has been at the forefront of uncovering some of the most important stories of our time. Today, he’s joining us to discuss the concerns of election fraud, foreign influence, and money laundering. No matter your political beliefs, election fraud is a threat to all nations when it comes to the integrity of our elections. Additionally, John will discuss the recent U.S. Treasury Department network intrusion that is believed to have been perpetrated by actors sponsored by the Republic of China. Are our federal agencies doing enough to protect our sensitive data and personal identifying information? Could this be the new global threat by sinister regimes to destabilize our infrastructure? We'll let you be the judge. Don't miss this episode as we explore some of the most significant concerns unfolding in the U.S. and internationally.Just The News: https://justthenews.com/John Solomon Reports Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/john-solomon-reports/id1495251160________________________________IAFCI CONTACT INFO:IAFCI Website: https://iafci.org/Phone: 916-939-5000Advertising Opportunities and Guest Appearance: IAFCIProtectorspodcast@gmail.com
