Trump Threatens Legal Action Over Iran Intel Leaks

News summary

President Donald Trump has faced multiple intelligence leaks that challenge his claims of having completely disabled Iran's nuclear program following recent U.S. airstrikes. Intercepted audio and leaked reports suggest the damage to Iran's nuclear facilities was less extensive than Trump asserted, with some intelligence indicating the setbacks may only delay Iran's program by months rather than years. Trump has strongly condemned these leaks, calling for the prosecution of those responsible and threatening to compel journalists to reveal their sources on national security grounds. Despite these leaks, Heritage Foundation President Kevin Roberts praised the Trump administration for what he described as a historic week, highlighting the degradation of Iran's nuclear threat alongside other domestic and international successes. The White House has defended its position by criticizing media reports as out of context and incomplete, emphasizing that the overall intelligence picture supports the claim that Iran's nuclear program is effectively over. Trump continues to maintain that the airstrikes were decisive and dismissed reports suggesting Iran moved enriched uranium prior to the attacks as false.
