Republican vice presidential candidate JD Vance has confirmed that both his phone and former President Donald Trump's phone were hacked by Chinese hackers. Vance stated that the hackers accessed only non-sensitive information, including some offensive memes and a message to his wife about buying milk. He emphasized that the hackers could not access his encrypted messages, as he uses secure messaging apps Signal and iMessage. The Foreign Affairs Committee Chair, Michael McCaul, noted that there has been a pattern of Chinese attempts to hack into the phones of public officials, including his own, and highlighted that the Trump campaign appears to be a specific target compared to the Harris campaign.
