Two sources familiar with the matter told NBC News that the threat cited by Turner, R-Ohio, refers to a space-related capability from the Russian military.

President Joe Biden has been tracking the national security threat and directed White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan to engage congressional leaders, according to two U.S. officials.

White House officials conceded the matter is “serious” but there are ways to “contain” the threat without triggering mass panic, these officials said.

Kind of leaves me curious. Russia has some capability that is space related, and is a threat. Ok. I get the impression this is a newish threat. Or one they recently learned about. And it is “serious”.

By stating there are ways to contain the threat without causing “mass panic” one can logically conclude that there are other ways of containing the threat that could trigger mass panic.

They could have not mentioned mass panic at all but, since they did, I can’t help but think this is potentially a big deal.

We can speculate but probably won’t figure out what’s going on without more info and, since it is classified, that’s extremely unlikely.

PS: another article

Two sources familiar with deliberations on Capitol Hill said the intelligence has to do with the Russians wanting to put a nuclear weapon into space.

This is not to drop a nuclear weapon onto earth but rather to possibly use against satellites.

PPS: sounds like maybe this has been known about and is a medium to long term issue, not anything immediate.
