If reports are accurate, President Donald Trump revealed vital and highly classified information in the Oval Office to Putin’s top officials. This reckless move jeopardizes our intelligence sources, exposes extremely sensitive information, and seriously calls into question our president’s judgment. This dangerous behavior threatens our global alliances in the fight against terrorism and actually makes America less safe.
Congressman Ted Deutch represents Florida’s 22nd district in the United States House of Representatives.
