Democrats are "dead wrong" if they believe the White House overemphasized intelligence regarding potential threats from Iran, according to a top Republican senator. Host Harris Faulkner asked Senate Foreign Relations Committee chairman James Risch on "Outnumbered Overtime" whether Democrats' claims the Trump administration "exaggerated" Iran intelligence are grounded in fact. "Our efforts and our ultimate objective over the past days has been to deter Iran," Pompeo said. "A war with Iran would be an absolute disaster, far worse than the war with Iraq. I hope the people tell this administration that we will not go to war in Iran.”Risch said recent Iran intelligence shows that the "velocity" of certain events has increased.
