Trump responds to Dems' obvious pooping the success of US military

The Trump administration is moving to tighten control over classified information shared with Congress following a damaging leak about U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear sites, a report revealed Thursday. The decision comes as the administration pushes back against media narratives questioning the success of the weekend operation, which President Trump has hailed as a decisive blow to Iran’s nuclear ambitions.
On Saturday, U.S. forces conducted precision strikes on three Iranian nuclear facilities, an operation the administration described as a strategic masterstroke. However, a leaked Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) assessment, reported by outlets like CNN and The New York Times on Tuesday, suggested the strikes only delayed Iran’s nuclear program by a few months. The report also noted that Iran had moved much of its enriched uranium stockpile before the attack.
The administration swiftly dismissed the leaked assessment as incomplete and misleading. On Wednesday, President Trump, speaking in The Hague alongside NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, called the intelligence “very inconclusive.” He emphasized the operation’s success, likening it to historic military victories and insisting it set Iran’s nuclear capabilities back “basically decades.”
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth echoed the president’s confidence, announcing Thursday that subsequent reports, including one from the CIA, confirmed Iran’s nuclear program was “severely damaged.” Hegseth, speaking at the NATO summit in the Netherlands, criticized the leaked DIA report as “preliminary” and “low-confidence,” accusing media outlets of spinning it for political gain. “This is a political motive here,” he told reporters, referencing the top-secret nature of the document.

The idea that Democrats would know more about the success of a military operation looks like a real stretch. It looks like the Democrats are more interested in attacking the Trump administration than the attack on the enemy. The leftist media also looks like it is shilling for the Democrats.
