A major warning that Iran is poised to unleash terrorism in the U.S. in revenge for Donald Trump’s war has leaked—despite the White House trying to hush it up. The joint statement by embattled FBI Director Kash Patel, Kristi Noem’s Department of Homeland Security, and the National Counterterrorism Center, was drawn up after Trump starting bombing his Middle Eastern enemy, and should have been released already. But Patel’s intelligence bulletin was held up by Trump’s White House, only to leak in its entirety to the Daily Mail. That move was rare in itself, but the leak of such a sensitive document is likely to spark fresh concerns at Patel’s conduct. He is already under scrutiny for his lavish private jet use, and his wild beer-drinking antics in the locker room of the U.S. men’s hockey team after they won Olympics gold.
