  "textContent": "President Donald Trump and CIA Director John Ratcliffe on Monday detailed a high-risk rescue deep inside Iran in which U.S. forces — aided by a CIA-led “deception campaign” — raced “against the clock” to locate and recover a wounded airman concealed in a mountain crevice, “invisible to the enemy, but not to the CIA,” after his F-15E Strike Eagle was shot down, while evading capture for nearly two days behind enemy lines.\n\nThe post By Way of Deception: Trump, Ratcliffe Detail CIA Subterfuge Mission Saving U.S. Airman Concealed Deep Inside Iran appeared first on Breitbart.",
