#LeonPanetta, who served Democratic presidents as defense secy, CIA director and White House chief of staff, said he has “seen enough wars where truth becomes the first casualty.”
“It’s not the first administration that has not told the truth about #war. But the president has made it kind of a very standard approach to almost any question to in one way or another kind of #lie about what’s really happening & basically describe everything as fine & that we’re winning the #war,” he said.

From #heatherCoxRichardson #leonpanetta
The president is under enormous pressure, as his war with Iran sparked Iranian officials to close the Strait of Hormuz.... This outcome was expected by previous presidents, but Trump seemed to think he could avoid it and now is stuck without an easy solution. As former defense secretary and Central Intelligence Agency director Leon Panetta told David Smith of The Guardian, “[I]f there was an escape here for Trump, it would be to declare victory and it’s over and we’ve been able to be successful in all of our military targets. The problem is he can declare victory all he wants but, if he doesn’t get the ceasefire, he’s got nothing. And he’s not going to get a ceasefire as long as Iran is holding the gun of the strait of Hormuz against his head.”
“He tends to be naive about how things can happen,” Panetta told Smith. “If he says it and keeps saying it, there’s always a hope that what he says will come true. But that’s what kids do. It’s not what presidents do.”

Trump moves to revoke clearances for officials who signed Hunter Biden letter
President Trump took executive action Monday to start revoking the security clearances of his former national security adviser, John Bolton, and dozens of intelligence officials who signed a letter in 2020 claiming emails found on a laptop owned by Hunter Biden bore the hallmarks of a Russian disinformation campaign.
Mr. Trump said in his order that the signers of the letter “willfully weaponized the gravitas of the Intelligence Community to manipulate the political process and undermine our democratic institutions.”
The letter at issue was signed by 51 former intelligence officials and released in October 2020.
Among those who signed the letter are former Defense Secretary #LeonPanetta, former Director of National Intelligence #JamesClapper, former #CIA and #NSA Director #MichaelHayden and former CIA Director #JohnBrennan.

"[#Harris] understands what our military is for. The role of our military is to defend us from foreign enemies," Panetta said. "It is not to threaten Americans, & it sure as hell isn't to put immigrants in camps."
