California Gov. Gavin Newsom has mocked the self-styled “Secretary of War” Pete Hegseth over the apparent reasons behind his latest press crackdown.
Hegseth has decreed that he was ripping up the rule book on how journalists operate in the Pentagon, limiting newsgathering with a set of restrictive rules, which detractors say are designed to gag reporters.
A standoff over the new order has seen some usually loyal media outlets side with NPR and The New York Times against Hegseth.
