Army Veteran Torches ‘Rattled’ Hegseth’s ‘Dangerous’ Military Move

An Army veteran blasted Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth for politicizing the military and accused him of attacking the press more aggressively than he attacks America’s enemies.

Hegseth lashed out at reporters repeatedly during a Thursday news conference amid the fallout over a leaked preliminary intelligence assessment that found last weekend’s strikes on Iran had only set the country’s nuclear program back by a few months.

The defense secretary ranted at the press and called out news organizations and reporters by name, accusing them of “a great deal of irresponsible reporting based on leaks, preliminary information in low confidence.”
