MSM Pushing ‘Chaos’ Narrative Within DOD

Calling it a “nonstory,” the White House is pushing back forcefully against recent media reports alleging that Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth participated in a second encrypted Signal group chat where discussions reportedly included potential military strikes on Yemen. In an official statement, White House officials downplayed the significance of the revelations, framing them as politically motivated leaks by disgruntled former Department of Defense staffers who were recently dismissed. The Aadministration defended Hegseth’s role, accusing certain media outlets of sensationalizing incomplete or misleading information to stir controversy and undermine national security decision-making.
