Terrifying ‘security breach’ spotted in Trump’s Situation Room as Ice Maiden Susie Wiles faces blowback
Donald Trump’s top loyalist Susie Wiles is facing blowback after she was spotted wearing an electronic fitness device next to the President during the bombing of Iran.
The White House posted photos from Trump’s makeshift Mar-a-Lago Situation Room on Saturday morning as he oversaw the launch of ‘Operation Epic Fury,’ which resulted in the death of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
One image shows Wiles speaking with Trump, clearly wearing a personal electronic wrist device. Some online users initially believed it was an Apple Watch, but it was later identified as a WHOOP fitness tracker.
Critics called it a potential security breach, questioning how an electronic fitness tracker with Bluetooth capabilities could end up in such a sensitive setting. Others claimed the device could be hacked remotely and used to spy on the president during the top-secret military operation.
The CEO of WHOOP Will Ahmed responded in a statement that the device ‘does not include a microphone, GPS, or cellular capability of any kind’.
He added that it has long been on the National Security Agency’s (NSA) approved personal electronic devices list.
The White House also defended Susie Wiles in a statement to the Daily Mail, saying WHOOP devices are ‘secure by design’ and cleared by the NSA to be worn during classified briefings.
Another user noted that while some devices are approved by the NSA for limited secure uses, most intel agencies strictly ban personal Bluetooth-enabled wearables — including smartwatches and fitness trackers — in the Situation Room.

Others bashed the White House for launching the attack on Iran from Trump’s Palm Beach club and not a secure room inside the White House.
‘The president just started a war,’ wrote Atlantic staff writer Tom Nichols. ‘He should be in DC, as should his [national security] team, and he should have been on TV last night in the Oval – and without a dopey grandpa hat.’
Vice President JD Vance was not present at Mar-a-Lago with Trump when bombs fell over Iran. Vance, along with National Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard, were inside the White House Situation Room.
‘The “situation room” [at Mar-a-Lago] doesn’t even have walls,’ another X user wrote. ‘You can literally see people listening in. These are just drapes tossed over some ceiling beams. Completely open for people to see and overhear what’s going on.’
Iran has now carried out retaliatory strikes across the Middle East following the joint US-Israel attack on Tehran on Saturday.
Tehran has struck the Fifth Fleet service center in Manama, Bahrain, and claims to have hit bases across the region including in Qatar, the United Arab Emirates and Kuwait.

It is unclear how many civilians have been killed by Iran’s revenge strikes
The Iranians are also using kamikaze drones to strike residential buildings and airports in the Middle East.
The number of casualties resulting from the operation remains unclear at the moment.
But CENTOM announced Sunday morning that three US troops have been killed in the operation thus far.
