Trump Administration Opens Leak Investigations
Briefly

The Trump administration has initiated investigations into alleged politically motivated leaks within intelligence agencies, as announced by Tulsi Gabbard, the director of national intelligence. This aligns with the administration's commitment to pursue sources of stories involving national security. Gabbard has pointed to specific leaks, including reported information on U.S.-Russia relations and Iran-Israel matters. She intends to target intelligence officials rather than news organizations. This move reflects a broader strategy to deter leaks and may influence how national security information is reported by the press.
The Trump administration has opened its first known investigations into politically motivated leaks, fulfilling promises to pursue sources of national security stories.
Unfortunately, such leaks have become commonplace with no investigation or accountability. That ends now.
