Esper 'Didn't See' Evidence Of Planned Iranian Attacks

The transcript discusses President Trump's assertion that Iran was planning to attack four US embassies, which was used to justify the strike on Iranian commander Qasem Soleimani. Defense Secretary Esper agreed with Trump's belief but noted the lack of specific intelligence on the embassy threats. Thousands of paratroopers were deployed to reinforce US embassies in the region. The transcript also covers the questioning by Congress on the imminence of the attack and the justification for the strike.
