Intelligence Disputes Over Election Interference Become Training Case Study

The inquiry has become standard training in spy schools, where analysts study how officials handled Russian and Chinese election interference reporting.

  • Barry Zulauf, the ombudsman for the U.S. intelligence community, authored a 2021 report finding that intelligence on Russian and Chinese election interference was manipulated due to political stances on President Donald Trump, and this report is now used as a training case study worldwide.
  • The U.S. intelligence community added instruction on politicization and objectivity to their analyst training following revelations of altered or suppressed intelligence.
  • Declassified documents reveal that a National Security Agency report on Chinese election interference was delayed for over a year by senior officials, raising perceptions of a Deep State coverup.
  • Zulauf's investigation implicated senior intelligence leaders, including Deputy Director of National Intelligence Beth Sanner, whose security clearance was revoked in 2025.
