President Donald Trump threatened to force a news organization to turn over the name of an anonymous source who revealed details about a U.S. airman who went missing in Iran. Several outlets reported on the lost airman, who was subsequently rescued after his fighter jet was shot down. “We’re looking very hard to find that leaker,” Trump said in a press briefing Monday. The Justice Department did not respond immediately to questions about what organization and reporters Trump was referring to. This is the same Trump administration that misled a judge in order to seize the work and personal devices of Washington Post reporter Hannah Natanson.
