Vice President JD Vance disputed - before seemingly confirming - reports that he’s concerned about the Pentagon’s upbeat assessment of the Iran war and worried about how the conflict is burning through large amounts of the U.S. weapons supply.
On Monday, The Atlantic reported that Vance has inquired about whether the Defense Department’s often triumphant description of the war is accurate. The magazine, citing two senior administration officials, also reported that the vice president has asked whether military officials are understating what appears to be a “drastic” depletion of U.S. munitions stores as the conflict continues.
