WASHINGTON (June 26, 2025) – After “leaks to the press” undermining President Trump’s claims that U.S. airstrikes obliterated Iranian nuclear facilities, the Trump Administration is limiting Intelligence Sharing with Congress.
Four national security officials will brief lawmakers today over the damage in Iran, while Democrat lawmakers call for an immediate reversal of the decision to limit intelligence sharing.
For more context on the matter, please consider Laura A. Dickinson, the Lyle T. Alverson Professor of Law at The George Washington University Law School. Dickinson is an expert on national security, human rights, the law of armed conflict, and foreign affairs privatization. Author of Outsourcing War and Peace, Dickinson examines the increasing outsourcing of military and security functions, considers the impact of this trend on core public values, and outlines mechanisms for protecting these values in an era of privatization.
