Hegseth’s Security Threatens Journalists with Removal

Wait 5 sec.

“A security agent for Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth warned reporters awaiting the start of his first news briefing in six months on Tuesday that they will be physically removed if they do not maintain decorum and act professionally,” the Washington Post reports.“The unusual warning was a first in recent memory, members of the Pentagon press corps said. Reporters, including from The Washington Post, requested clarification and whether that meant shouting questions would result in removal, but the security agent provided no answer and a Defense Department civilian staffer did not elaborate.”
