Virginia Democrat Sen. Mark Warner, the vice chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, told CBS’s “Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan” that in the 2025 worldwide threats briefing, “there was no imminent threat to the United States and I don’t believe there was even an imminent threat to Israel from Iran.” He also demanded a complete investigation into the bombing of an elementary school in Iran. We’ve only got preliminary assessments, and I want a thorough investigation. But what I don’t want to do is jump to the conclusion, whether it was U.S. Central Command (Centcom) or whether it was Defense Intelligence Agency. That’s what thorough investigations are supposed to be for. Clearly, it was an American strike. I, again, feel a little disappointed that the president tried to deny that at first or say it was even the Iranians, Warner said. “The words of the president of the United States are terribly important in moments like this, he added. And, unfortunately, President Trump uses loose language all the time, didn’t ever come to the American people on this war of choice and say what our goals are, and we still don’t know other than the four goals he outlined.”
