The Intelligence Trail: Gary Berntsen on Trump’s 2020 Election Files
Sunday, July 26, 2026
President Trump released intelligence materials connected to the 2020 election. But what do those documents actually establish—and what remains unproven?
In this episode, Joe Pags sits down with former CIA officer Gary Berntsen to follow the intelligence trail and separate documented evidence from firsthand knowledge, unresolved allegations, and claims that still require further investigation.
Gary explains:
- What the released materials say
- What intelligence agencies knew and when they knew it
- What he personally witnessed during his career
- What the evidence can—and cannot—prove
- Which questions Congress and the intelligence community still need to answer
This is a discussion about accountability, intelligence, election security, and the difference between a released document, a firsthand account, and an unresolved allegation. Joe and Gary examine the record without treating every claim as an established fact.
