Former President Donald Trump delivered a 26-minute address from the White House, urging Congress to pass the 'Save America Act' and claiming widespread vulnerabilities in the nation's election infrastructure.
Donald Trump and hardline Republicans maintain his 2020 election defeat to Joe Biden resulted from widespread voter fraud.
Joe Biden secured the 2020 election with 306 electoral votes and 51.3% of the popular vote; Trump disputes this fact.
Trump claimed the election system dangerously exposes Americans to hacking, exploitation, and foreign interference.
He specifically claimed China played a major role in 'election fraud,' illicitly gaining access to information on US voters.
Beyond these assertions, Trump further alleged China secretly hacked US voter files and meddled in the 2020 election to ensure his defeat.
He also claimed Beijing may have been involved in the 'manufacture of illegal ballots' and paid journalists to write negative stories about him.
The US intelligence community concluded there was no foreign interference in the 2020 US elections.
Sue Gordon, a former Principal Deputy Director of National Intelligence, stated that foreign intelligence communities have tried to influence US elections since 2016 to undermine democracy.

Trump claimed members of the Deep State within American intelligence agencies actively suppressed 'the extent of China’s sinister election meddling' in 2020.
He also claimed 'Deep state' actors within the U.S. intelligence community had withheld crucial information from his daily briefings.
The 'Save America Act' currently lacks sufficient support to pass the Senate, facing significant political hurdles.
US Senator Bernie Moreno claimed this address might be the most important Oval Office address since the Cuban Missile Crisis.

Moreno also stated the time for complacency with China is over.
Meanwhile, Trump claimed major US broadcasters ABC and NBC are hiding the truth and participating in a plot to continue election fraud.
Two major broadcasters did not air the speech in full, a decision that drew criticism from Trump's supporters.
The White House website crashed during President Trump's address, creating technical difficulties for those attempting to access information.
Katie Pavlich claimed new documents about China stealing voter registration data have been posted on the White House website.
Trump also claimed he has 'won' the Iran war and has a '59 percent Approval Rating,' alongside assertions that prices are coming down with the lowering of oil and gas.
This strategic shift follows his recent decision to drop defamation claims against the BBC's commercial and production arms, concluding a separate legal matter.
