The White House called The Washington Post’s article of an intercepted call from the Iranians downplaying claiming Trump’s attacks as shameful and nonsense.
The United States obtained intercepted communication between senior Iranian officials discussing this month’s U.S. military strikes on Iran’s nuclear program and remarking that the attack was less devastating than they had expected, said four people familiar with the classified intelligence circulating within the U.S. government.
The communication, intended to be private, included Iranian government officials speculating as to why the strikes directed by President Donald Trump were not as destructive and extensive as they had anticipated, these people said. Like some others, they spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive intelligence.
Ouch. Pete Hegseth is going to be running around the DOD with a handheld lie detector test and a bottle of rum screaming at everyone he sees.
White House Press Secretary Leavitt went on tilt to defend Trump’s claims that the Iranian nuclear program has been obliterated.
