Pentagon Removes Defense Intelligence Agency Chief Jeffrey Kruse
Three-star general Jeffrey Kruse was unexpectedly removed as the director of the Defense Intelligence Agency, with deputy Christine Bordine stepping in as acting director. The firing occurred amid controversy over the DIA's assessment of Iran's nuclear program following U.S. airstrikes, which contradicted President Trump's claims of complete destruction. The move has raised concerns about politicization within U.S. intelligence agencies and has been criticized as part of a broader pattern of loyalty tests in national security leadership.
