'Not aware': Tulsi Gabbard says she does not know Trump said he was shocked by Iran's strike on Gulf countries

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard testified before Congress that she was unaware of President Donald Trump's reaction to Iran's attacks on US allies in the Gulf region. Gabbard stated that the intelligence community provides all available information for the president's objective decision-making, but did not confirm whether she briefed him about a potential Iranian counterattack. Trump publicly expressed surprise at the scale of Iran's strikes and claimed he had no expectation of such attacks on Middle Eastern countries. The annual threat assessment report by the intelligence community outlined concerns about an increase in missile threats from adversaries like China, Russia, North Korea, Iran, and Pakistan.
