CIA officers involved in drafting the 2017 intelligence assessment are now speaking out, calling Tulsi’s claims “flat-out false.” These are nonpartisan public servants, not political operatives. Tulsi is attacking truth to serve power.

In a world full of threats, gutting our intel community is like flying blind through a storm. Policymakers and military leaders can’t make smart calls without sharp intel. Cut that, and we all pay the price. #IntelligenceMatters #NationalSecurity #ODNI #defense www.thebulwark.com/p/america-is...
America Is Blinding Itself
In a dangerous world, downsizing our intelligence agencies is shortsighted and dangerous.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. One of the criteria for preselection must be IQ - potential candidates need to have a higher IQ than a BRICK.

Leaking classified docs-no matter the motive-isn’t whistleblowing, it’s a national security risk. Frustration with Trump doesn’t justify handing over secrets. There are legal channels for dissent. #NatSec #WhistleblowerOrTraitor #IntelligenceMatters www.politico.com/news/2025/05...

That’s a dangerous cut. Gutting intelligence staff weakens our ability to spot threats before they hit. Politics shouldn’t strip down national security just to score points.

Twisting intel to fit a political script doesn’t just undercut the truth- it cripples the people who keep us safe. When the narrative matters more than the facts, it’s not leadership-it’s a liability.

An attack on US intelligence
The president’s willingness to manipulate assessments of Iran's nuclear programme suggests that he prioritises his public narrative over the effectiveness of America's intelligence services.

Glad someone hit the brakes. Slashing intel staff during a time of rising threats? That’s not trimming fat- that’s gutting the brain. Law enforcement and Jewish communities pushed back for good reason.

Trump’s beef with U.S. intelligence never really ended- it just changed scripts. First it was Russia, now it’s Iran. When you treat intelligence like a political enemy, you’re not leading-you’re guessing in the dark.
