A disturbing new cyber threat has rocked the Trump White House.
According to senior officials, both the FBI and the White House are urgently investigating a high-tech impersonation plot targeting President Trump’s chief of staff, Susie Wiles.
The sophisticated scheme reportedly involved AI-generated phone calls and text messages sent to well-known Republican lawmakers and conservative business leaders, with someone pretending to be Wiles.
“The White House takes cybersecurity extremely seriously,” a top official confirmed. “This issue is under active investigation.”
FBI Director Kash Patel confirmed the Bureau is leading the probe, adding:
“We are treating this as a serious threat to national security and to President Trump’s inner circle.”
AI Voice Cloning Suspected
Those contacted said the impersonator sounded just like Wiles—raising fears of AI voice-cloning technology being used to target conservative political figures.
Some recipients grew suspicious when the impersonator asked unusual questions about President Trump and even requested money transfers—something the real Susie Wiles would never do.
According to investigators, the messages were riddled with grammatical mistakes and odd phrasing, inconsistent with Wiles’ usual communication style.
Not Wiles’ First Cybersecurity Breach
This isn’t the first time Wiles has faced cyber threats.
During the 2024 campaign, Iranian hackers reportedly breached her private email, gaining access to sensitive communications about Vice President JD Vance.
Now, the latest impersonation attempt shows how foreign actors and bad-faith operatives are using advanced tech to disrupt American leadership—especially those aligned with President Trump’s America First agenda.
National Security in the AI Age
This case highlights an alarming new frontier: AI-powered political deception.
Experts warn that similar attacks could be used to confuse voters, mislead officials, or even compromise national security as the 2028 election cycle looms.
The Trump administration has vowed to tighten digital defenses and hold any perpetrators accountable, especially those attempting to undermine conservative leadership through cyberattacks.
Stay tuned as this story develops—this could be the tip of the iceberg.
