Leavitt Calls Out CNN
The White House is pushing back hard after a CNN report questioned the impact of President Trump’s successful airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities. In a fiery press briefing Thursday, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt blasted CNN’s Natasha Bertrand, accusing her of spreading false narratives designed to discredit both the mission and the Trump administration.
“This reporter pushed an unverified claim from anti-Trump insiders trying to weaken our national security,” Leavitt said. “It’s a disgrace—and the American people see through it.”
CNN Reporter Accused of Pushing Anti-Trump Agenda
Bertrand’s report relied on leaked intelligence that suggested the U.S. airstrikes had only set back Iran’s nuclear program by “a few months.” President Trump and senior officials immediately challenged the report’s credibility and motives.
“She’s trying to make our brave Patriot Pilots look bad,” President Trump said. “It’s pure propaganda.”
CNN, as expected, stood by Bertrand, issuing a statement claiming her report was “accurate” and “in the public interest.” Anchor Jake Tapper, a known critic of the Trump administration, echoed support and accused the White House of “shooting the messengers.”
White House: Media Leaks Aimed at Sabotaging U.S. Strength Abroad
The administration maintains that the intelligence leak is not only misleading, but part of a broader, coordinated effort to minimize Trump’s foreign policy achievements. Sources close to the President say the mission dealt a significant blow to Iran’s nuclear infrastructure and sent a strong message to hostile regimes.
“This is about protecting American lives and showing strength,” one official said. “And once again, the media is siding with our enemies instead of our troops.”
The Bigger Picture: Media Bias, Deep State Leaks, and the 2024 Election
For millions of Americans—especially veterans, active-duty families, and patriotic conservatives—this latest media attack is part of a troubling pattern: unelected bureaucrats and legacy media outlets working hand-in-hand to undermine a President who puts America First.
As President Trump continues to lead with strength on the world stage, the opposition seems more focused on tearing him down than reporting the truth.
Bottom Line
This isn’t journalism. It’s another hit piece aimed at undermining U.S. strength, discrediting our military, and damaging President Trump’s leadership. Thankfully, millions of Americans are wide awake to the tactics of the corporate media—and they’re not buying it.
