Donald Trump addresses leaks regarding the effectiveness of U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, calling the leakers "professional stabbers." Trump cites IAEA Director Rafael Grossi to support his claim that the facilities were completely obliterated. He denies that Iran was able to move the heavy nuclear material, asserting that the strikes were too fast for relocation.

Representative Anna Paulina Luna has called for the death penalty for U.S. intelligence agents who leak classified information to foreign adversaries. Luna argues that such leaks constitute treason and put American lives at risk for political reasons. She emphasizes that the new Department of Justice will hold leakers accountable, unlike the previous administration.

Owen Shroyer and Scott Ritter discuss the recent intelligence leak involving 21-year-old airman Jack Teixeira. Ritter suggests two possibilities: either a total breakdown in security or a deliberate "controlled leak" by the intelligence community to provide an "off-ramp" for the failing war in Ukraine. He compares the situation to Daniel Ellsberg and the Pentagon Papers, noting the leaks exposed that the administration has been lying about Ukrainian military capabilities.
