A classified CIA dossier on Iran’s military capabilities was leaked to the Washington Post this week — while American naval forces were actively engaged in operations in the Strait of Hormuz. Let that sink in. Someone inside the intelligence community decided the best time to undermine the Commander-in-Chief was while our sailors were dodging missiles.
But sure, tell me more about how the “intelligence community” is full of “faithful career public servants” who just want to keep America safe.
Here’s what the leaked CIA analysis claimed: Iran retains 75% of its prewar mobile launcher inventories and 70% of its prewar missile stockpiles. The dossier also concluded that “Iran can survive the U.S. naval blockade for at least three to four months before facing more severe economic hardship.” In other words, someone inside the CIA handed the Washington Post a document that essentially tells Iran exactly how long they need to hold out.
That’s not whistleblowing. That’s giving the enemy a playbook.
President Trump, speaking from the Oval Office during a meeting with UFC fighters on Wednesday, painted a very different picture than the one the leakers wanted you to see. “Their missiles are mostly decimated. They have probably 18, 19 percent, but not a lot by comparison to what they had,” Trump said. He added, “Their leaders are all dead. So I think we won.”
Notice the contrast. The President says Iran is crippled. The leaked CIA dossier says Iran is doing just fine, actually. Somebody’s lying — and given the intelligence community’s track record over the last decade, I know where I’m placing my bet.
Trump also made the strategic objective crystal clear: “They can’t have nuclear weapons. You know, it’s very simple.” Simple enough for most Americans to understand. Apparently too simple for the deep state bureaucrats who’d rather see Trump fail than see America win.
This is the same intelligence apparatus that spent four years fabricating a Russia collusion hoax. The same crew that told us Hunter’s laptop was “Russian disinformation.” The same people who swore Iraq had weapons of mass destruction. And now they’re leaking classified war assessments to a friendly newspaper while an active naval blockade is underway in the Strait of Hormuz.
Let’s call this what it is: treason dressed up as journalism. The Washington Post gets to run a splashy headline. Some GS-15 at Langley gets to feel like a resistance hero. And the Iranians get a detailed briefing on what America’s own intelligence services think about their military readiness — for free.
Every single person with access to that dossier needs to be investigated. Yesterday. Not a blue-ribbon commission. Not a six-month review. Polygraphs and perp walks.
Because if you leak war plans while American sailors are in harm’s way, you don’t get to hide behind the First Amendment. You get to explain yourself to a military tribunal.
As reported by The Gateway Pundit, this leak didn’t happen in a vacuum. It happened during a live military confrontation. The intel community isn’t just undermining a president anymore — they’re actively sabotaging a war effort. And until someone goes to prison for it, they’ll keep doing it.
