Ron Wyden questioned Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard on the U.S. intelligence community’s prior assessments of Iran, highlighting that the consequences of the ongoing conflict were anticipated. He referenced a statement from last year’s worldwide threats assessment, authored under Gabbard’s leadership, which warned of Iran’s ability to launch regional strikes and disrupt energy shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. The remarks came amid rising oil prices linked to the escalating situation.
