      Julian Sanchez Retweeted Donald J. Trump

      This is apparently a photo Trump got during a presidential intelligence briefing (and almost certainly TS), from which Iran can draw valuable inferences about our aerial surveillance capabilities. Heck of a job, Donnie.https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1167493371973255170 …

      The United States of America was not involved in the catastrophic accident during final launch preparations for the Safir SLV Launch at Semnan Launch Site One in Iran. I wish Iran best wishes and good luck in determining what happened at Site One. pic.twitter.com/z0iDj2L0Y3

      Once again, Trump’s compulsion to brag about the amazing intelligence he’s privy to because he’s so very important overrides even the most basic security considerations. Betting there are lots of migraines at NRO/NGA/CIA this afternoon.

      Getting a whole lot of derp in response to this. Maybe the photo doesn’t tell YOU anything; I promise it’s more informative to experts. To pick a couple obvious points: The time & position of the image capture. Our understanding (or misunderstanding) of their facilities.

      Maybe the photo doesn’t give Iran any information they didn’t already have, but TwitterRando327 doesn’t know that, and absent a declassification review, I doubt Trump does either.

      Already seeing folks with relevant background suggesting they’re reasonably confident this is an aerial vehicle rather than a satellite image, and have the time it was taken down to a fairly narrow window. But hey, no big deal, because you’ve seen photos sort of like this before.

      Julian Sanchez Retweeted Andres Freund (Pol)

      I am HOPING this means he actually ran this by the IC before just tweeting it out, but his track record does not inspire confidence.https://twitter.com/AndresFreundPol/status/1167556572639387649 …

      Do you take the blacked out classification markings (I presume that's what it is) as a sign that the release went through *some* review? Or just that somebody used MS paint to black them out?

      Far from conclusive - especially given the clearly unconventional path this took, the limited frame, and not being done always - but wouldn't there normally be release markers somewhere?

      Replying to @AndresFreundPol @normative

      If it's not actually been formally released, the fact that the Tweet doesn't read like it has been written by Trump seems to make this legally a lot more complicated.
