<p>President Donald Trump unloaded on the legacy media after a Thursday morning press conference — which was meant to correct the record on the U.S. military&#8217;s recent strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities — held by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.</p>
<p>Trump took to his Truth Social platform to praise Hegseth for delivering one of the &#8220;most professional&#8221; press conferences he&#8217;d ever seen and called for the media outlets that had pushed ahead with leaked intelligence to &#8220;fire everyone involved.&#8221;</p>
<p>Trump prefaced the press conference — which he&#8217;d teased just a day earlier — with <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114749580476669594">another post</a>, saying, &#8220;Rumor is that the Failing New York Times and Fake News CNN will be firing the reporters who made up the FAKE stories on the Iran Nuclear sites because they got it so wrong. Let&#8217;s see what happens?&#8221;</p>
<p>Once the press conference ended, he took a sharper tone.</p>
<p>&#8220;One of the greatest, most professional, and most &#8216;confirming&#8217; News Conferences I have ever seen! The Fake News should fire everyone involved in this Witch Hunt, and apologize to our great warriors, and everyone else!&#8221; the president <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114749815668266552">posted</a>, piggy-backing on Hegseth&#8217;s comments.</p>
<p>Hegseth had said during his remarks that media outlets seemed so desperate to attack Trump that they didn&#8217;t care if the framing of their stories undermined the brave actions of the men and women of the United States military who had actually carried out the mission.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">Thank you, Mr. President. <a href="https://t.co/oxHBnXLEB4">pic.twitter.com/oxHBnXLEB4</a></p>
<p>— Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth (@SecDef) <a href="https://twitter.com/SecDef/status/1938224791741219296?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 26, 2025</a></p></blockquote>
<p>The president added <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114749839848044904">his own comments</a> clarifying some of what was seen at the Iranian nuclear site — cars and trucks that some in the media have alleged might have been moving nuclear materials out of the site prior to the attack.</p>
<p>&#8220;The cars and small trucks at the site were those of concrete workers trying to cover up the top of the shafts. Nothing was taken out of facility. Would take too long, too dangerous, and very heavy and hard to move!&#8221; he declared.</p>
<p>Trump doubled down, attacking the media again a short time later, <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114750055630968441">posting</a> in all capital letters, &#8220;FAKE NEWS REPORTERS FROM CNN &amp; THE NEW YORK TIMES SHOULD BE FIRED, IMMEDIATELY!!! BAD PEOPLE WITH EVIL INTENTIONS!!!&#8221;</p>
