A high-ranking Defense official has just learned the hard way that President Donald Trump and his administration aren’t afraid to let go of people who refuse to serve their agenda.
According to the New York Post, Air Force Lt. Gen. Jeffrey Kruse, head of the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), was fired this week.
Kruse was fired from his powerful role in the wake of a DIA bomb-damage assessment report that was ultimately leaked to the corporate media.
The report claimed that President Trump’s strikes on Iran earlier this year only set the rogue regime back a few months regarding its nuclear program.
These claims were contrary to what the Trump administration had reported.
A senior Defense official reportedly told the Post that Kruse “will no longer serve as DIA Director.”
The firing reportedly came down from Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth over what was described as a “loss of confidence” in the three-star general, according to congressional sources.
The damage assessment report after the strikes on Iran, which were carried out by stealth bombers, was reportedly leaked to CNN.
The Post noted:
“The DIA’s classified, ‘low confidence’ estimation of the effectiveness of the June 21 airstrikes on Iran’s Fordow, Isfahan and Natanz nuclear facilities was leaked to CNN three days after American B-2 stealth bombers and cruise missiles bombarded the sites.”
The report, which was based on intel gathered just a day after the bombings, suggested that Iran could recover from it and bring its nuclear program back online within months.
Trump was not happy about the report, however.
The president was especially outraged over the fact that it was leaked to the press.
“AN ATTEMPT TO DEMEAN ONE OF THE MOST SUCCESSFUL MILITARY STRIKES IN HISTORY,” in a Truth Social post at the time.
“THE NUCLEAR SITES IN IRAN ARE COMPLETELY DESTROYED!”
Special envoy Steve Witkoff was particularly fired up regarding the DIA’s report, calling it “treasonous” and “outrageous.”
The Post noted:
“Special envoy Steve Witkoff charged that any suggestion the US did not achieve its military objectives in Iran is ‘completely preposterous,’ in an interview on Fox News’s ‘The Ingraham Angle’ at the time.
“Witkoff went on to slam the leaking of the DIA assessment as ‘outrageous’ and ‘treasonous,’ and called for an investigation to find the person responsible for it in order to hold them accountable.”
Kruse’s firing was only the latest in the Trump administration’s efforts to clean house in the U.S. intelligence community.
DNI Director Tulsi Gabbard announced earlier in the week a major overhaul at her agency and others in the world of U.S. intelligence.
