So there has been a scandal at the Pentagon every single day since January 25th.

I mean, every single day.

Because every day since January 25th, Pete Heggseth has been the Secretary of Defense.

And some days, that scandal is more jarring than others.

Like today, when the country and the entire world, really, turned to the Pentagon,

tuned in this morning for an update on the outcome of the U.S. strikes on Iran. And instead,

they got this meltdown. In hunting for scandals all the time, in trying to find wedges and

spin stories, this press corps and the press corps miss historic moments.

Because you cheer against Trump so hard, it's like in your DNA and in your blood to cheer against Trump.

So let's take half truths, spun information, leaked information,

and then spin it. Classified information is leaked or peddled for political purposes to try to make

the president look bad. But just a little portion, just a little portion that makes it seem like

maybe the strike wasn't effective. If you want to know what's going on at Ford O, you better go there and get a big shovel.

That was Trump Defense Secretary Pete Heggseth, who I would note was until recently a Fox News anchor.

I don't know what was in his coffee this morning because that took place at 8 a.m.

Now, if he had behaved like that on Fox News, even many of their viewers, many of their

loyal viewers, might have been alarmed. But he's not a Fox News weekend anchor anymore. He is the

Secretary of Defense, and he was speaking from the Pentagon. He was answering questions about a series

of recent reports based on intelligence from inside Hegss's own agency that say Trump's

strikes on Iran did not obliterate Iran's nuclear sites like Trump has claimed.

Intelligence analysts from the Defense Intelligence Agency, again, the Pentagon's own intelligence

arm, said that Saturday's U.S. strike did not destroy a run stockpile of enriched uranium.
