Following Trump’s attacks on Iran, an admin official tells Rolling Stone, “The intelligence assessments have not really changed”
After Donald Trump’s decision to strike three Iranian nuclear facilities on Saturday, administration officials are barely bothering to pretend the unprecedented — and potentially calamitous — attacks were motivated by new intelligence suggesting Iran was on the brink of having nuclear weapons.
Just months ago, Trump’s Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard testified to Congress, in her opening statement, that the U.S. intel community “continues to assess that Iran is not building a nuclear weapon” and had not reauthorized its nuclear weapons program.
While Trump recently publicly disputed Gabbard’s testimony, according to two administration officials with knowledge of internal deliberations in recent weeks, the president’s decision to strike was not driven by any new U.S. intelligence on Iran.
There’s certainly no intelligence to be found anywhere in the Trump administration.
His whole life is based on his gut feeling and mood
Oh FFS. We will know this orange fucker doesnt pay attention in any intel meetings he actual attends. And he can’t read the intel reports. He just makes everything up from what he sees on Fox News and the other conservative “news” networks.
They weren’t based on vibes, they were based on orders. Trump’s foreign handlers told him what to do and he did it.
FTFY: the president’s decision to strike was not driven by
any new U.S.intelligenceon Iran.Why not use the full word? “There is no intelligence” is much more apt.
vibe coding and now vibe warmongering
Ten bucks says Grok told him to do it.
I guess we’re slowly entering the stellaris timeline. It’s terrifying
Really nice knowing that Nuke country #1 is governed by absolute senile murderous freaks for over at least 10 years now
Vibe Warfare. Where Skynet doesn’t have control of the military, but everyone does what it says anyway.
“There is no intel” describes the entire regime
Can someone please impeach him… based on vibes?
But he was elected based on vibes 🥲
I mean, if Israel has nukes, and Iran has nukes, that should lead to peace, right? But peace isn’t what Israel is after. This isn’t about peace. It’s about eliminating all that think and look different.
What a year, first we got vibe coding and now vibe bombing… I wonder what’s next
Hopefully vibe-heart attack.
I’m not religious, but please GOD MAKE THIS HAPPEN
Don’t forget about the vibe-based deportations
We’ve had vibe-based rape for ages. “She says no, but she clearly wants it”
Who does he think he is? A Bush family member? /jk
They were based on Trump being pissed that his little birthday parade was humiliating.
“maybe my military parade sucked because I haven’t actually started a war yet”
