Cellphone of Trump's lead defense attorney compromised by Chinese hackers, sources say
Briefly

The FBI determined that Todd Blanche's communications were compromised by Chinese cyber-spies, raising concerns about the security of sensitive information amidst ongoing legal battles for Trump.
Sources indicated that the hackers gained access to Blanche's text messages and recorded audio calls, highlighting the extensive capability and ambition of China's intelligence services to infiltrate key political figures' communications.
After breaking into Todd Blanche's phone, the Chinese hackers not only targeted communications with family and friends but also may have impacted other sensitive contacts, which raises alarm about the breach.
The hacking incident led the FBI to investigate the matter further, tying it to a larger pattern of malicious activity attributed to actors affiliated with the Chinese government against U.S. telecommunications.
