Biden and WH press secretary also weigh in. Wonder if it was MAGA people. Or people who watch movies and expect Americans to play the principal heroic role. The vanity of the leaks stood out for me. This is a war in which Ukrainians are the lead actors. The rest of us play supportive roles.

"Joe Biden rages at Ukraine intel leaks and says its an ’overstatement of our role’ in war.

JOE BIDEN has expressed fury about leaks concerning US Intelligence sharing with Ukraine to his top national security officials.

Mr Biden also stressed that the leaks needed to stop.

According to NBC, the US President told the officials that the leaks “distract from our objective”

On Monday, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki reiterated this telling reporters that the President was “displeased” with the leaks and considered them "inaccurate”.

Ms Psaki declined to confirm calls between the President and national security officials regarding the leaks.

However, she told reporters that Biden's view “was that it was an overstatement of our role, an inaccurate statement, and also an understatement of the Ukrainians' role and their leadership, and he does not, did not, (feel) they were constructive”.

US officials have been open about sharing intelligence with Ukraine."

"Former US intelligence officers are advising their successors currently in office to shut up and stop boasting about their role in Ukraine’s military successes.

Two stories surfaced in as many days in the American press this week, citing unnamed officials as saying that US intelligence was instrumental in the targeting of Russian generals on the battlefield and in the sinking of the Moskva flagship cruiser on the Black Sea."
