US President Donald Trump makes his feelings clear as he is demanding jail terms for perpetrators who exposed his furious clash with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth over hidden missile shortages.
Confronted over why the President was kept in the dark, the secretary of war reportedly turned on his own deputy, according to the Washington Post.
The showdown reportedly unfolded at Camp David last Friday, where Hegseth insisted he was blameless and accused his number two, Stephen Feinberg, of presiding over the shortfall and failing to keep the President fully briefed.
President Donald Trump has now dismissed the reports of a tense meeting with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth regarding military munitions shortages as false and treasonous, vowing to pursue lengthy prison sentences for internal sources.
Trump defended Hegseth’s leadership and insisted the United States maintains massive munitions stockpiles.
Denying any shortage of US munitions and insisting that interceptors are reaching American bases as needed.
‘The “leakers” of these treasonous statements are being hunted down. Long term jail sentences will be sought!’ Trump wrote on Truth Social.
The White House has denied the clash ever took place, however, with press secretary Karoline Leavitt saying: ‘This is 100% fake news. Literally never happened. And President Trump has the utmost confidence in Secretary Hegseth.’
