as posted by the channelTrump Is Going To Start ARRESTING REPORTERS - Trump Threatens Reporters Over Iran Leak – “They Should Be Prosecuted”
Hawk dives into Donald Trump's ongoing obsession with leaks from inside his own Defense Department—this time tied to a classified bombing mission in Iran. After CNN and the New York Times reported on the mission's mixed effectiveness, Trump turned his fury toward the media, especially CNN’s Natasha Bertrand.
In an interview with Maria Bartiromo, Trump floated the idea of prosecuting journalists and hinted at forcing reporters to reveal their sources under the guise of national security. Hawk walks viewers through Trump's threats, the bizarre claim that Democrats were behind the leaks (despite overwhelming evidence the sources were internal), and Trump's apparent belief that reporters will "crumble like a wet paper bag" when confronted.
This episode unpacks how the former president’s authoritarian instincts are once again on full display—and how his supporters in the Defense Department are backing his push to criminalize journalism. Hawk adds political satire and commentary to highlight the danger of Trump’s rhetoric, all while keeping it sharp, funny, and focused on the facts.
Tune in as Hawk calls out the absurdity of Trump's logic, the disturbing implications for press freedom, and the strange fixation of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who reportedly spends half his time hunting down internal leakers.
