Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth called former Fox News colleague Jennifer Griffin “the worst” as he faced more questions about the U.S. bombing of Iran’s nuclear sites on Thursday. (Watch the video below.)
The Pentagon press conference turned downright hostile as Hegseth, who once occupied the curvy couch of “Fox & Friends” before he got his Cabinet gig, slammed Griffin, the network’s chief national security correspondent.
An early Pentagon mission assessment, which was revealed by the media, determined the missile strikes may have merely delayed Iran’s nuke production by months but did not obliterate its program as Trump and Hegseth have vigorously claimed.
That also raised the question of whether Iran moved its highly enriched uranium before the attacks.
So Griffin asked, “Do you have certainty that all the highly enriched uranium was inside the Fordow mountain, or some of it, because there were satellite photos that showed more than a dozen trucks there two days in advance. Are you certain none of that highly enriched uranium was moved?”
