You think Putin wants the world to know about his space based nuclear weapons? The ones that are 10,000% illegal according to a treaty signed by every fucking country on the planet?

This shit ain’t funny.

“People should not panic — that is unequivocal. People should not panic,” said Rep. Jim Himes, D-Conn., ranking member on the House Intelligence Committee.

Turner “is right to highlight this issue, but it’s so sensitive that he is right now not publicly discussing it,” Himes told reporters. “And I don’t want people thinking that martians are landing or that your Wednesday is going to be ruined. But it is something that the Congress and the administration does need to address in the medium to long run.

Sounds like they addressed that, kind of.
