Donald Trump’s MAGA allies lost it on Tuesday after media outlets reported on classified info gathered by the president’s own intelligence community.
Details of a classified report leaked to CNN and The New York Times contradicted Trump’s boasts about the U.S. strikes on Iran, which he claims brought Iran’s nuclear program to its knees. The findings, produced by the Pentagon’s intelligence arm, say that the bombings on three Iranian nuclear sites did not destroy the country’s program and likely only set it back by months.
Trump’s allies were mad—but not because of the findings at odds with what the public has been told since the weekend strikes. Instead, they took aim at CNN for reporting on them.
