Pete Hegseth goes into beast mode on media hacks CNN, NY Times

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth is batting down desperate media attempts to turn President Donald Trump’s bombing of Iran into a bad thing.

Democrats haven’t been able to stomach Trump winning since 2016, and they have had nearly a decade to perfect their narrative-twisting ways.

Look:

BREAKING: New reports indicate Donald Trump’s strikes on Iran were unsuccessful in fully eliminating Iran’s nuclear sites. The White House is in full panic mode that CNN found this out.

Such reporting is being breathlessly picked up by the left’s media allies and people who need Trump to fail so that they can win. Hegseth, however, isn’t done dropping bombs.

In this case, he’s lobbing truth bombs across the legacy media’s bow, and isn’t letting them get away with their TDS fairy tales.

Watch:

President Trump and @SecDef Pete Hegseth team up to deliver a DAMNING indictment of the fake news media’s coverage of Operation Midnight Hammer:

Hegseth began his lesson by celebrating the bravery and dedication of those who partook in the operation to decomission Iran’s nuclear site, which only serves to make the “journalists” trying to spin the narrative look even smaller.

“The instinct of CNN, the instinct of the New York Times, is to try to find a way to spin it for their own political reasons, to try to hurt President Trump or our country,” the defense secretary said.

X users stood by Hegseth:

The media can’t allow Trump a win he did something that has the majority of countries thanking him for and the rest putting him in for the Nobel Peace Prize our media can’t have that it’s Trump and the blind hatred the media has created must never be allowed to falter.

Are all these people that keep saying bombing takes Congressional approval really that uneducated, or is it propaganda. My first question for all of them is, Did you complain when Obama bombed 7 different countries without Congressional approval? It’s called the War Act, read it
