On Friday, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegesh and Donald Trump appeared in the Oval office Attacking the New York Times for his report that Elon Musk was ready to obtain a Hegseth secret information session about the US War Plan if there was ever a conflict with China.
Trump said: “Well, they are all the news that is not suitable for printing. They have false sources, or have no sources, I think they create most, but this was a story invented by The New York Times. I call it the failure. It is a newspaper that fails in which it is failing and should not make them really enemies of people and something else.”
Trump and his administration are pathological liars, so his protests suggested that the history of Times was probably true.
What the administration is doing below seems more confirmation.
The Pentagon has initiated an investigation that incorporates polygraph tests to seek leaks after Elon Musk requested the prosecution of any officials of the Department of Defense that disseminates “maliciously falsely false information about their treatment with the military.
In response to the accusations surrounding Musk’s recent visit to Pentagon, the chief of cabinet of the Secretary of Defense Pete Heghseth, Joe Kasper, requested an investigation into “unauthorized disseminations” of the national security information with which they are responsible for “being referred to the entity of application of the appropriate criminal law for the criminal accusation.”
How can there be a filtration if the story is false?
