BREAKING: President Trump Says ‘Somebody’ Leaked Information About Downed Fighter Jet and Missing Pilot to Media (VIDEO)
President Trump on Monday attended the White House briefing to update the public on the Iran conflict and the amazing and miraculous rescue of the missing fighter pilot.
Trump said that ‘somebody’ leaked information about the missing fighter pilot and ultimately put hundreds of US service members in danger.
A fighter pilot went missing last week after Iran shot down an F-15E fighter jet.
The fighter jet went down in a remote part of Iran on Friday. One pilot was rescued, and the other pilot, the ‘gunner,’ went missing.
The missing fighter pilot was rescued early Sunday morning local time.
In an incredible act of valor, the seriously wounded pilot evaded capture by scaling a 7,000-foot mountain ridge in Southern Iran and hiding out in a crevice.
President Trump said someone leaked information about the downed jet and missing pilot.
The president also vowed to jail the reporter who wrote the story on the downed jet if they don’t give up information about the leaker.
It is unclear which media outlet President Trump was referring to, but The New York Times, Washington Post, Axios, and Fox News all reported on the downed fighter jet.
“As you probably know, we didn’t talk about the first one for an hour, and then somebody leaked something, which we’ll hopefully find that leaker; we’re looking very hard to find that leaker, and talked about there’s somebody missing,” Trump said to reporters on Monday.
“They basically said that we have one, and there’s somebody missing. Well, they didn’t know there was somebody missing until this leaker gave the information!” Trump said.
“So whoever it is, we think we’ll be able to find it out, because we’re going to go to the media company that released it. And we’re going to say, national security, give it up or go to jail.”
“There’s some things you can’t do. When they did that, all of a sudden, the entire country of Iran knew that there was a pilot that was somewhere on their land that was fighting for his life!” Trump said.
He continued, “Because a leaker leaked – because we have one – we rescued one, but there’s another one out there that we’re trying to get, actually, the country, Iran, put out.. offering a very big award for anybody that captures the pilot.”
“They put this mission, that man at great risk, and hundreds of people looking for him!” he added.
“The person that did the story will go to jail if he doesn’t say!” Trump said.

Democrat Suzanna Karatassos, who is running for the Georgia House of Representatives, has floated an idea to ‘punish’ MAGA.
Karatassos shared a video suggesting banning internet access for those who voted for Donald Trump.
“When this is all over, and Trump’s gone and Democrats are back in charge, and we’re rebuilding everything,” she said in the now-deleted TikTok video posted in January.
“The punishment for MAGA for voting for Trump three times needs to be that they remove their internet access for four years.”
“That they cannot post videos or comments on social media for four straight years, so that none of us are subjected to their lies and misinformation while we are rebuilding the chaos that they caused the whole world and America gets to be without their B.S. online for 4 straight years.”
“Can we all agree to this?”

As is typical when Democrats say the quiet part out loud and don’t have the self-awareness to realize how authoritarian they sound, Karatassos claims her video was a “joke” because it is hilarious to parrot the language used by dictators to silence the opposition.

Social media users slammed Karatassos with one noting, “The party that screams ‘No Kings’ and ‘Free Speech’ wants to SILENCE yours.”
They’re not even trying to hide it! Here’s Suzanna Karatassos, a Democrat candidate for the GA State House.

Another points out that Karatassos is running in the same district where Laken Riley was brutally murdered by an illegal and she wants to silence those still in mourning.

“They scream about ‘democracy’ and ‘free speech’ when it suits them, but the second they think they can get away with it, they want to shut down half the country for daring to vote against their socialist agenda.”
“No trial, no crime, just pure political revenge against patriots who support Trump and want America First.”

From Karatassos’ campaign website, “I am a wife and mother in Georgia, almost all of my family lives here. I want to see Georgia thrive and for all our citizens to be able to lead a life of prosperity with dignity.”
“What is happening in our country at a federal level is unprecedented and I realized I can’t do anything about that, but I
can help protect our State from it.”
“Helping to flip the Georgia Legislature Blue is what I can offer.”
That and, of course, silencing those who disagree with her.

SHIELD OF THE AMERICAS: Ecuador’s Noboa Says US Troops Are Welcome To Help Fight Drug Cartels (VIDEO)
Ecuador’s president, Daniel Noboa
The Western Hemisphere is getting more secure by the day.
The new anti-Cartel alliance put forward by US President Donald J. Trump is starting to change the landscape in Latin America, once forgotten by feeble Joe Biden, and left to be infiltrated by Russia, China, and Iran.
But now, action against these criminal drug networks is ongoing, stronger than ever.
As a clear example, we have Ecuador’s President Daniel Noboa saying he would welcome US troops to help confront the ‘security crisis’ in his nation.
JUST IN: Ecuadorian President says he would welcome U.S. troops to combat the country’s drug gangs.

Bloomberg reported:
“The US has already helped Ecuador target criminal gangs with its advanced tracking and intelligence technology, Noboa said in an interview. He would be in favor of even more involvement from the administration of President Donald Trump, who he said shares his concern with combating drug trafficking.
‘It’s not an invasion, it’s not a — not an intruder coming into our country’, Noboa said Tuesday, speaking at his home overlooking the Guayas River in the gang-ridden port city of Guayaquil. ‘It’s actually international collaboration against crime’.”

Noboa predicted a US troop deployment happening as early as this year.
“With US help, he said that his government had succeeded in slashing the homicide rate in the violent region near the Colombian border. Government data shows a near 35% year-over-year decline in violent crime in those hot spots during the first quarter of this year.”
Ecuador’s President Daniel Noboa said he would welcome US troops to help confront the “security crisis” in his nation, provided they follow the lead of local armed forces.
“It’s not an invasion, it’s not an intruder coming to our country,” Noboa tells Bloomberg’s Annmarie… pic.twitter.com/J7wrNuxnwK

“Noboa is one of Trump’s closest allies in Latin America, who has deepened security ties with Washington and taken a similarly confrontational approach both to drug cartels and to trade and diplomacy. In March, Ecuador carried out military actions using US intelligence to target groups they labeled terrorist.”
