Hegseth Explodes Media Coverage on Iran Strikes: Accuses of Rooting Against Trump, Ignoring Heroism
In a fiery Pentagon briefing, U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth lashed out at the media, accusing them of "cheering against Trump" and downplaying the success of Operation Midnight Hammer ā a bold series of U.S. airstrikes targeting Iran's nuclear sites.
Hegseth defended the missionās results, slammed leaks of low-confidence intelligence reports, and praised the courage of American pilots and defense crews.
With tensions high and politics in play, the Secretary warned that biased reporting could overshadow what he called a āhistoricā blow to Iranās nuclear ambitions.

The Pentagon revealed that every weapon deployed in the recent U.S. strike on Iran had a pre-assigned target ā and none missed. Officials emphasized the unprecedented precision of the operation, which focused on Iranās nuclear infrastructure and command hubs. The statement underscores the effectiveness of American airpower, particularly the deployment of GBU-57 bunker busters, and suggests a major degradation of Iranās strategic capabilities.

US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has described Americaās widely perceived failure against Yemenās Houthis as a ātailored operation,ā claiming the goal was freedom of navigation and not the protection of Israeli-linked vessels. Notably, Hegseth made no mention of Israel during his statement. Critics argue the Pentagon has rebranded a humiliating military result, after months of failed deterrence against Houthi strikes in the Red Sea. The Pentagon's shifting rhetoric has sparked fresh debate over U.S. credibility, especially in light of its deep alliance with Israel.

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen reminded Donald Trump that the EU remains open for a trade dealābut the U.S. President made it clear: China and India come first. Speaking after sealing deals with Beijing and hinting at a "very big" one with India, Trump gave no indication of engaging with Europe anytime soon. The EU, once a top U.S. economic partner, is now seemingly sidelined as Washington pivots eastward. The diplomatic slight leaves Brussels waiting in lineābehind two of the worldās biggest emerging powerhouses.

U.S. President Donald Trump has accused Democrats of leaking classified intel about U.S. airstrikes on Iranian nuclear sites, branding it a āperfect flightā betrayal. He demanded prosecution, despite the FBI finding no direct evidence implicating any political party. The leak revealed that Iranās nuclear capacity was only delayed by months, contradicting Trumpās claims of a full strike success. While Trump lashes out, the White House urges caution, and intelligence agencies brace for more fallout. Lawmakers are set for briefings, as political tensions rise over national security leaks.

U.S President Trump's border czar Tom Homan launched a fiery appeal on June 26, 2025, demanding Congress stop the delays and pass the āOne Big Beautiful Billā ā a sweeping legislation that combines tax cuts, expanded child credits, and major new funding for border security. Homan slammed lawmakers for playing politics with national security, calling the bill a ānonpartisan no-brainer.ā As the Senate prepares for a critical vote, tensions are rising in Washington. Will this high-stakes gamble pay off for Trump?

U.S President Donald Trump is turning up the heat on Senate Republicans to pass his signature tax-and-spending package ā dubbed the āBig, Beautiful Billā ā before the July 4 deadline. The legislation includes sweeping tax cuts, boosts to border security, and expanded child tax credits. But it also slashes Medicaid and food stamp funding, raising fierce opposition from Democrats who call it a āBig, Ugly Betrayal.ā
With a $4.2 trillion projected impact on the national deficit, a blocked Medicaid tax provision, and wavering GOP senators, the billās future hangs in the balance. Can Trump rally the votes in time, or is this another legislative collapse in the making?

Iran Nuclear Attack ā three words that shook global diplomacy. Operation Midnight Hammer was launched with precision and power, featuring U.S. B-2 bombers striking Iranās nuclear triangle: Natanz, Fordow, and Isfahan. President Trump called it a historic triumph, even comparing it to Hiroshima. But was the Iran Nuclear Attack really a knockout punch?
Now, intelligence reports challenge that claim ā revealing that Iranās key assets like enriched uranium and centrifuges were possibly moved before the bombs fell. With the Iran Nuclear Attack now in question, the world waits for clarity. Was it symbolic, strategic, or simply overstated?

U.S President Donald Trump says the U.S. airstrikes on Iran's nuclear sites were a "total and unprecedented destruction." But U.S. intelligence reports, IAEA warnings, and CNN investigations paint a very different picture ā one of temporary setbacks, operational centrifuges, and possible radiation risks. Who's telling the truth?
This video dives into what really happened during Operation Midnight Hammer:
Did Americaās biggest bombs fail to eliminate Iranās nuclear program?
Why are media outlets like CNN and NYT being called āfake newsā by the White House?
What does the IAEA report say about radiation fallout?

Iran has now confirmed acceptance of President Trumpās ceasefire proposal with Israel, hours after initially denying any agreement. The Supreme National Security Council stated that the last missile launches occurred just before the ceasefire took effect. Iran denies violating the truce and warns it will retaliate if Israel continues its aggression. Trump, who claims to have brokered the ceasefire via phone calls with both leaders, praised the temporary peace as a sign of āstamina, courage, and intelligence.ā
