Iran Threat: U.S. Intelligence Warns of Immediate Danger

0:00On March 18, CIA Director John Rackliffe warned that U.S. intelligence shows Iran poses an immediate threat to America. He pointed to the regime's ongoing push for nuclear weapons capabilities and advance missile programs as clear signs of danger.

Key figures rally behind Rackliffe's view. Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, confirmed the president acted on solid intel about the threat.
