Come on Maria, he didn’t TWEET it, he TRUTHED it!
According to NBC News, the Trump Administration is even scaling back information given to Congress to cut down on leaks:
The White House plans to limit intelligence sharing with members of Congress after an early assessment of damage caused by U.S. strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites leaked this week, a senior White House official confirmed to NBC News.
The administration specifically plans to post less information on CAPNET, the system used to share classified material with Congress, the official said.
The decision, which almost certainly won’t sit well with Democrats, comes as top Cabinet officials are set to provide a classified briefing to members of the Senate on Thursday afternoon about the strikes.
“The administration should immediately undo this decision,” Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., told NBC News Thursday. “They seem not to want to see the facts to get out. Just Trump’s version of the facts, which we know is often false.”
Axios first reported the administration’s intention of limiting the information provided to Congress.
House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., echoed outrage from President Donald Trump and his allies Thursday over the reporting of the Defense Intelligence Agency’s early assessment of the U.S. strikes on Iran, which said that its nuclear program had been sent back by only three to six months.
“There was a leak, and we’re trying to get down to the bottom of that. It’s dangerous and ridiculous that happened. We’re going to solve that problem, and we’ll keep the coordination,” Johnson told NBC News. When asked if he thought the leak came from Congress, the speaker replied, “That’s my suspicion.”
