Before Trump got on Air Force One this morning to head for Chicago, he took a few questions from reporters. One of which was why he didn’t inform Congress they were going after Baghdadi:

That’s just good sense right there. Schiff is the biggest leaker in Congress and can’t be trusted with any sensitive intelligence. Good call by Trump.
Here’s video of Trump saying he is considering releasing some of the footage of the raid:
