Independent journalist Ken Klippensteinwas suspended from X after he published the hacked dossier compiled by the Trump campaign during its vetting of JD Vance.

Back in February, the Trump campaign compiled a research dossier on Vance in order to vet the Ohio senator as a potential running mate for Donald Trump. The 271-page document included a section about “potential vulnerabilities,” which included his past criticism of the former president.

Soon after Trump picked Vance as his vice presidential nominee, an individual known as “Robert” sent the document to a reporter from Politico. In August, The Trump campaign revealed it had been hacked by Iranian intelligence.

Several other outlets were sent the vetting documents, but all refused to print its contents — on the grounds of both the unclear provenance of the informationas well as its apparent lack of newsworthiness. Some criticized those outlets for their refusal to make the documents public.

Klippenstein on Thursday published the dossier via his website.

“The dossier has been offered to me and I’ve decided to publish it because it’s of keen public interest in an election season,” Klippenstein wrote. “It’s a 271-page research paper the Trump campaign prepared to vet now vice presidential candidate J.D. Vance. As far as I can tell, it hasn’t been altered, but even if it was, its contents are publicly verifiable. I’ll let it speak for itself.”

His account was suspended hours after publishing the dossier.

He should be arrested for putting JD in danger as a candidate

==DANBURY, Connecticut,

September 26, 2024 – Victory is at hand.==

Recent shifts in the few reliable polls in key districts and swing states show that hard-pressed Americans are decisively rejecting the phony “politics of joy” and the empty promises that define the Harris campaign.

People are seeing through the word salad rhetoric, recognizing it for what it is: hollow.

To date, the Harris campaign has offered no real solutions to the struggles Americans face: inflation, rising crime, and weakening national security.These topics can’t be masked by feel-good phrases, celebrity endorsements, or as many Oprah interviews as you want.

Harris has peaked. The momentum is now on our side, and this is the time to capitalize on it.

If the Make America Great Again(MAGA) movement focuses all of its efforts on a massiveget-out-the-vote and ballot-chasing effort in the crucial days andweeks until November 5th, we will win and win big.

The stakes have never been higher; this is the opportunity to take back control. We are not just fighting for a win; we are fighting for the future of America.

A victory of this magnitude means sweeping control of the House, Senate, and the Presidency. With this trifecta, we can destroy the policies that have harmed Americans and put the country back on track.

The reality is that there is no significant group of “undecided” voters leftregarding the candidates themselves. People know where they stand when it comes to President Trump and his opponents. What remains unclear for some is whether they will actually participate in the voting process.

These are the individuals who will decide this election. With relentless effort and personal contact, they will break our way.It’s our job to engage with them, ensure they understand what’s at stake, and motivate them to cast their ballots.

President Trump risks his life daily to save our country. Every day, he faces tremendous opposition and challenges, but he continues to fight for the American people.

Through your work, show him that you have his back.Let’s demonstrate our commitmentto this cause by putting everything we have into these final weeks.

Remember: Victory is at hand.
