The New York Times has done it again—publishing details of a classified Navy SEAL operation inside North Korea, jeopardizing national security, compromising tactics, and handing intelligence straight to Kim Jong Un. And for what? To smear President Trump.

Here’s the reality: in early 2019, Trump authorized a high-risk mission to tap into North Korea’s nuclear communications channel. It was bold, dangerous, and potentially game-changing in his high-stakes diplomacy with Kim. The SEALs trained for months, launched from submarines, and executed one of the toughest assignments imaginable. Things went sideways, shots were fired, and the mission was aborted. That happens in war. The problem isn’t the operation—it’s that the details are splashed across the Times years later.

This isn’t journalism—it’s sabotage. By exposing how the SEALs planned, infiltrated, and even covered their tracks, the Times didn’t just embarrass Trump—they armed our enemies with knowledge they didn’t have before. North Korea likely had no idea U.S. forces were inside their territory. The SEALs made sure the bodies sank, leaving the regime to assume its men were lost at sea. Now, thanks to the leak, Pyongyang knows exactly what happened. That doesn’t serve America. It only serves Trump’s enemies.

And notice the spin: the Times insists the dead were “civilians.” Really? Civilians in wetsuits, lurking in the dead of night, right on top of a U.S. covert mission? Give me a break. These weren’t random fishermen—they were military assets who got in the way of an American op. But labeling them civilians plays into the left’s favorite narrative: Trump the reckless lawbreaker, Trump the cowboy who “violates norms,” Trump the danger to world peace.

This is the same playbook we’ve seen before. During his first term, leaks poured out to undermine Trump at every turn. Now it’s happening again—deep state operatives feeding the press in order to sabotage his peace initiatives and brand him as impulsive. The real crime isn’t that Trump authorized the mission—it’s that someone leaked it to the press. That leaker should be found, prosecuted, and locked up for a very long time.

Here’s the truth the media won’t admit: it took real guts for Trump to green-light this mission while publicly pursuing diplomacy with Kim. He balanced a velvet handshake with an iron fist—something few presidents have the strength or courage to do. That’s not recklessness—that’s leadership.

The bottom line: this leak doesn’t weaken Trump. It strengthens the case that he’s the only leader willing to do what it takes to keep America safe—even when the media and political class are more interested in undermining him than confronting our enemies.
