January 1, Leavitt Torches CNN Over Fallen Troops

Wyatt’s Take

  • Press briefing erupts as Leavitt blasts Collins for twisting Pete Hegseth’s words on troop coverage.
  • Admin honors fallen heroes but calls out media bias ignoring Operation Epic Fury successes.
  • CNN doubles down, proving they always aim to smear Trump and our warriors.

At yesterday’s White House briefing, CNN’s Kaitlan Collins grilled Karoline Leavitt on covering deaths of service members killed after Iran’s attack on U.S. and Israel forces.

Collins claimed Secretary Hegseth complained about front-page news on the six fallen soldiers. Leavitt fired back that media distorts facts to hurt the president.

“Is it the position of this administration that the press should not prominently cover the deaths of U.S. service members?”

“No. It’s the position of this administration that the press in this room and the press across the country should accurately report on the success of Operation Epic Fury and the damage it is doing to the rogue Iranian regime that has threatened the lives of every single American in this room.”

Collins pushed harder, quoting Hegseth on press making tragedies front-page to make Trump look bad. Leavitt shut her down, defending the secretary’s deep care for troops and slamming CNN’s track record.

“No, that’s not what the secretary said, Kaitlan, and that’s not what the secretary meant, and you know it,” Leavitt shot back. “You know you’re being disingenuous — we’ve never had a secretary of defense who cares more.”

“‘But when a few drones get through or tragic things happen, it’s front-page news. I get it, the press only wants to make the president look bad,'” Collins read.

“The press does only want to make the president look bad. That’s a fact,” Leavitt responded. “Especially you and especially CNN.”

Folks in the heartland, our fighters deserve real respect—not media games. Share this takedown and back leaders who fight for America first.

    The fuckin democrats would rather see Iran have nuclear weapons than to see Trump have anything to do with stopping it. They’re sick motherfuckers that hate our country and we should run them all the fuck out of our country.

      I think most Americans would rather see respect shown for the men and women killed following the wants of an irrational leader who only cares about himself. Maybe the press does want to make Trump look gad but, come on, it is just so bloody easy.

    Nobody with any sense should believe anything the main stream media says anymore. They will twist anything to make Trump look bad.

    The liberal left-wing press are responsible for propagating TDS. They hate President Trump and will do anything they can to make him look bad. The Dems won’t even try to work with him. The media will continue to twist everything he or his cabinet say or do.

    Strange how there are no leftwing cultists commenting here, they bit off more than they can chew when they did not stand for American citizens at the SOTU!! What is more screwed up is that the leftist Nazi democrat cultists know the Dems are messed up, but the cultists STILL go along with that trash!!
