Leavitt: No President Before Trump Had the Guts to Stop Iran’s Nukes

WHITE HOUSE, D.C., June 23, 2025 — From the White House press room this morning, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt addressed Fox News’ Brian Kilmeade and the nation regarding Operation Midnight Hammer and President Trump’s bold action to dismantle Iran’s nuclear ambitions. Leavitt praised the president’s leadership, calling it “an operation that presidents of the past have dreamed about, but no president had the guts to actually do it.” She credited the heroic U.S. pilots who flew nearly 40 hours and over 7,000 miles to execute precision strikes that eliminated an imminent nuclear threat to Israel, the United States, and the world. Leavitt emphasized that the president’s decision averted a nuclear crisis and made the world a safer place.

Leavitt also spoke about how Trump considered voices from across the political spectrum—including those like Steve Bannon and Marjorie Taylor Greene who urged restraint—before making his own decision based on intelligence showing Iran was weeks away from a nuclear weapon. She reaffirmed Trump’s doctrine of “peace through strength” as the driving force behind the mission, describing it as a principle he pioneered and implemented successfully in both terms. Leavitt closed by underscoring Trump’s vision of a peaceful, prosperous Middle East free from the threat of Iranian terror, a vision shared by America’s Gulf allies.
