Yeah, we can't compromise intelligence assets by revealing what we knew about Soleimani's actions and movements. I know we haven't appeared to care about that in the past, like when Trump divulged code word intelligence to Ambassador Lavrov in the Oval Office, but we really, really care about it now.

So, just take the administration's word for it. Has Trump ever lied to you?
