Pete Hegseth finally SNAPS, LOSES IT in meltdown | Another Day

The Trump administration has had it with. fake news, but don't worry, their fake. facts are still totally intact. This is. just another day. >> [music]. >> As everyone knows, the Trump. administration has had quite the. contentious relationship with the press. Everybody's heard the complaints that. trusted quality journalism is becoming. something of a bygone era. Well, thankfully, there are still some. reputable outlets that this White House. deems worthy of their time. Mr. President, what an honor. Thank you very. much. >> Yeah, thank you for sitting down with me.

today. Is it true that you watched the. Joshua fight on Air Force One? >> it. I watched you, and I thought you. were very brave. How big is the TV on. Air Force One? That was sort of a. >> Good. It's good. Literally a year and a. half ago, we had a country that was. laughed at all over the world. You know. that. They were laughing. Yeah, we were. just not respected. Nobody respected. >> respected the leadership. You just take. care. Say hello to your brother, okay? >> I will. Thank you, man. >> Thank you, man. Thank you for sitting. down. >> Great honor. Thank you, man. Want to. just do a pic, and then.

Cool. It was a very [snorts] good. interview. >> the Thank you, man. You know, for a guy. See, I I only had a day and a half to. prepare, so Uh it took you a day and a. half to prepare for that? Looks to me. like you strung together a few sentences. while pounding Muscle Milk in the green. room. But I guess Jake Paul is as. serious about his preparation as he is. about his perspiration. The point is, to. Trump, that's what a good interview. looks like. A reporter who asked the. tough questions about the size of the TV. on Air Force One, echoes your talking.

points about the greatness of America, and doesn't push back when you. completely contradict yourself. And. another one of these intrepid. interviewers is Fox News's Brian. Kilmeade. Look, nobody has the. technology or the weapons that we have. And and the Patriots are example of it. We have the Tomahawks. We have the. Patriots. We have stuff that nobody's. ever been able to produce, and they. can't produce it like us. So, we'll see how it all goes, Brian. I. mean, it's going very well. We're way. ahead of schedule. Way ahead. We had no. idea we'd be this far ahead. We've. knocked out.

close to 90% of their missiles. How. important How important would it be to. get out that besieged force, the the. thugs that walk the streets? >> You see, that is what a good journalist. does. They respectfully let the. president talk about how the United. States is the only nation with Tomahawk. missiles, instead of pulling the corrupt. fake news move of pointing out that. Donald Trump said something entirely. different just a few days ago. >> Tomahawk missile likely. destroyed that Iranian girl's school. So,

will the Americans will the US accept. any responsibility for that Well, I. haven't seen it, and I will say that the. Tomahawk, which is one of the most. powerful weapons around, is used by, you. know, sold and used by other countries, you know that. And whether it's Iran, who also has some. Tomahawks. I wish they had more. But uh whether it's Iran or somebody. else, the fact that a Tomahawk A. Tomahawk is very generic. >> Yep, we're the only ones that have that. very generic weapon that everyone has. Now, the reason that those interviews.

with our incredibly consistent. commander-in-chief went so well is. because the reporters did their job. They sat there. They nodded, and. sometimes smiled. Whereas over at the. Pentagon, some less experienced. journalists continued to show just how. little they seem to understand the. medium. Some in this crew, in the press, just can't stop. Allow me to make a few suggestions. People look up at the TV, and they see. banners. They see headlines. I I used to. be in that business. And I know that.

everything is written. intentionally. Pete Hegseth wants you to. remember that he was also once a. reputable member of the media. And so he. assumes that every journalist in that. room must obviously write with the exact. same intention as him. Well, the grades. are in, and Kamala Harris last night. flunked her exam. If you go by the old. adage, that children are the future, then plain as day, this poll shows that the future hates. America. This is not just the woke. military stuff you've been hearing. about. This is not an extremism.

stand-down or a social justice reading. list, or even a foolish CIA recruitment. video we've all seen by now. This is worse. This is way worse. This, my friends, is a purge. I don't. play golf, and I don't speak German. So, Bill Hammer has both of those on me. Uh yeah, it's true. It's true. I don't I. only speak one language, American. That's right, the good old American. language, where we write all our F's to. look like guns, our O's to have a severe.

weight problem, and in the American. language, the meaning of our words. doesn't really have much meaning. >> I mean, this was an excursion that a lot. of people wouldn't have done. I guess. that's why I couldn't find the American. language on Google Translate, because. you don't have to translate a word if. the meaning is just whatever you want it. to be. But sorry, Pete. You were saying? For example, a banner or a headline, "Mideast war intensifies", splashing on. the screen the last couple of days, alongside visuals of civilian or energy. targets that Iran has hit, because.

that's what they do. What should the banner read instead? How. about Iran increasingly desperate? Because they are. They know it, and so do you. Iran. increasingly desperate? That's the. headline you're pining for? They're a. nation at war. If you're looking for. someone increasingly desperate, you. might want to turn to the so-called. badass rocker who uses a network watched. primarily by geriatrics to promote his. tour dates. But what's another headline Pete thinks.

really missed the mark? Another example. of a fake headline that I saw yesterday, "War widening". Here's a real headline for you, for an. actual patriotic press. How about Iran. shrinking, going underground? Did you. hear those words? A patriotic press. Pete Hegseth apparently believes that. patriotism is not about holding your. leaders accountable through accurate and. ethical reporting, but merely acting as. stenographers and just writing down. whatever they tell you to write, because. that way, Americans can hear how awesome.

everything is, everywhere. You know, like how they do it over in this. democracy. Now, I'm not exactly sure what she said, but it sure as hell sounded like. freedom. But the fake news finder still had those. last arrows in his quiver. Or more fake. news from CNN. Reports that the Trump administration. underestimated the Iran war's impact on. the Strait of Hormuz. Patently ridiculous, of course. For.

decades, Iran has threatened shipping in. the Strait of Hormuz. This is always. what they do, hold the strait hostage. CNN doesn't think we thought of that. It's a fundamentally unserious report. The sooner David Ellison takes over that. network, the better. And that is what you call. giving away the game. We now live in a. world where the United States Secretary. of Defense feels completely comfortable. voicing his assumption that when. billionaire Trump supporter David.

Ellison gets his bid approved by Trump's. FCC to buy Warner Brothers Discovery, and in turn takes over CNN, one of the. biggest news organizations in the world, Pete and everyone in the Pentagon are in. store for more favorable coverage. And I. think Pete is confident in that. assumption because that's what David. Ellison promised Donald Trump. This. administration does not want news, they. want propaganda, which is a surprise to. no one, because the entire Trump machine. is organized around silencing anyone who. offers up anything but a glowing.

performance review of this White House. or America as a whole. In fact, that is. the stated mission of FCC Chair Brendan. Carr. We're launching a Pledge America. campaign at the FCC, which allows. broadcasters to air pro-America. patriotic programming to celebrate the. country's 250th birth. >> Yes, it allows broadcasters to do that, but let's just say that a newscaster. decides not to regurgitate a bunch of. MAGA talking points under the low hum of. the Star-Spangled Banner, and instead. point out what they see as the systemic.

dismantling of our constitutional. democracy. Well, Carr is totally cool. with that. Remember, his views on what. come across America's airwaves are not. mandates, but merely suggestions. If. journalists want to point out. inconsistencies or falsehoods coming. from this administration, that is. totally fine. Or it's also more than. fine if they want to say stuff like. this. You know, it's just incredible. that we actually need the FCC to remind. viewers and remind the people who are. programming to to to put beautiful.

patriotism on their on their airwaves. Um but you're right, you've got pockets. of the country that are pushing back on. this. Even even as we know that this is. the greatest country in the world and. the freest country in the world. >> Man, you know, technology is getting. incredibly advanced, because I know that. Maria Bartiromo and Brendan Carr aren't. even in the same location here, and yet. somehow she's still able to blow him on. camera. It is adorable watching people think.

that there is some level of fawning or. currying favor with this administration. that will land them in the untouchable. category. That if they do Donald Trump's. bidding hard enough, their organization. will be free from scorn. Remember how. Washington Post owner and Amazon chief. Jeff Bezos, seen here looking like he. just paid $10 million to be an extra in. Top Gun: Maverick, tried to cozy up to. the administration by backing off his. criticism of Trump's tariffs, and even. shelling out $40 million for this. illuminating piece of cinema? He thought. that would be enough to get special. treatment. But Bezos apparently missed.

the lesson. Just this week, David Carr. blasted Amazon for daring to criticize. SpaceX, and not long ago, Pete Hegseth. had his own choice words for Bezos's. Washington Post. Did you at any time. say that everybody on board should be. killed? Is anybody here from the. Washington Post? I don't know where you get your sources, but they suck. Yeah, they suck. Like if. If were to give those sources a rating, they'd be at something like 7%. These. people hate facts. They hate truth. It's.

why when asked why only half of the. Epstein files have been released, they. respond with The Dow is over 50,000. Seeking the truth is not anti-American. Holding our elected officials to account. is not anti-American. And pointing out. that the administration's lies and. falsehoods and blatant hypocrisies is. not anti-American. It is necessary, not. to mention a foundational element of our. democracy. As foundational as One. language, American. Sure. >> [music].
