Pentagon Pete Ignores Dead Troops to Melt Down at CNN

The Pentagon may have announced four more U.S. service members were killed as Donald Trump’s Iran war rages, but Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth kicked off his briefing early Friday by blasting the media in a wild rant about the coverage of “Operation Epic Fury.”

U.S. Central Command shared Friday that at least four of the six crew members who went down in the KC-135 refueling aircraft in western Iraq have died. The rescue and recovery effort is ongoing.

But Hegseth started his remarks on Friday by attacking CNN and whining that the press was not delivering the war propaganda he wanted to see in its headlines.
