June 25, 2025 ~ U.S. Rep. Tom Barrett joins Kevin Dietz to discuss the recent U.S. military strike on Iran, the fragile Middle East ceasefire, and the national security risks posed by intelligence leaks.
(CONTINUED) The congressman expressed concern over recent intelligence leaks, suggesting they may be politically motivated. “It’s very easy for Americans to tell that whomever would be leaking this was doing it, not out of an interest of national security… but of an interest of trying to discredit the President,” Barrett said. He warned that such leaks could undermine diplomatic efforts and the credibility of U.S. operations abroad.
Barrett also highlighted the importance of maintaining momentum in the current ceasefire between Iran and Israel, calling the early days of the agreement “the most critical.” He voiced hope that the situation could lead to broader diplomatic progress in the region, including potential expansion of the Abraham Accords.
