0:00.0 | Well, howdy there, Internet people, it's Bell again. So today, we're going to talk about Trump limiting intel access. |
0:10.0 | Trump is reportedly attempting to limit congressional access to intelligence. This comes on the heels of a classified briefing about a ROM for Congress being rescheduled. Democrats are understandably upset. |
0:23.6 | Congress is actually the lawmaking body in this country, and they are reportedly being kept out of the loop. |
0:30.6 | Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said, quote, |
0:34.6 | This isn't about national security. It's about Trump's insecurity. President Trump is |
0:41.0 | cutting off intelligence to Congress, raising one clear question. What is he hiding? Senate Minority |
0:49.1 | Whip, Dick Durbin, took Schumer's rhetorical question further, saying that the administration didn't want to share |
0:55.9 | the information because it's bad news, saying, quote, they were embarrassed by the leak because |
1:03.0 | it suggested that they did not obliterate the Iran nuclear program as promised. Let me help everybody |
1:10.8 | trying to figure out if the U.S. strikes were as |
1:13.8 | successful as the administration claimed. Take a look at the satellite photos right after the U.S. |
1:20.1 | strikes. Then take a look at the satellite photos from after the 23rd. Notice how the sites |
1:26.7 | were hit again? The Israelis struck the sites after the |
1:30.9 | U.S. strikes. If a site is destroyed or, I'm sorry, obliterated, they wouldn't have felt the need to hit it again. |
1:39.5 | It's really that simple. There's no spin that will change that. You can see additional damage at two of the |
1:46.6 | facilities. You can also see repairs already being made at the other location. It's interesting |
1:53.3 | to see additional damage on the road near the facility Trump said was obliterated. Looks like somebody |
1:59.7 | didn't want repair crews to have an easy time. |
2:03.2 | Let's also be clear about something else. The Iranian government knows how significant the damage is. |
2:10.5 | They have a better handle on the damage than the U.S. does. Unless the information would disclose an asset in Iran who provided the information or would betray some |
2:22.3 | other sources and methods, there's no reason not to share the information. If only, there was some |
2:29.5 | long-established method for the president to share incredibly sensitive information with Congress. |
