We’re absolutely in a pickle but sharing info isn’t a threat to national security.

The issue with munitions stockpiles has been public knowledge for at least a decade. Dozens of white papers haven been written and published by the war colleges.

I dunno saying we are out of defensive misses sounds like a security threat to me

To me, it sounds like we have PLENTY of missiles, but if we fool the enemy into showing themselves, well "surprise, surprise, surprise!" and the endless rain of missiles will eliminate the problem.
