"Karena kalian dan yang saya maksud adalah kalian secara spesifik, pers secara khusus kalian, pers, karena kalian begitu keras mendukung penentangan terhadap Trump, seolah-olah sudah ada di DNA dan darah kalian untuk menentangnya," ujar Menteri Pertahanan AS, Pete Hegseth, pada Kamis (26/5/2025).
"Karena kalian sangat menginginkan dia gagal, kalian harus meragukan efektivitas serangan-serangan ini. Kalian harus berharap mungkin serangan-serangan itu tidak efektif," lanjutnya.

00:00It's like in your DNA and in your blood to cheer against Trump, because you want him not to be successful so bad, because you, and I mean specifically you, the press, specifically you, the press corps, because you cheer against Trump so hard.
00:17It's like in your DNA and in your blood to cheer against Trump, because you want him not to be successful so bad, you have to cheer against the efficacy of these strikes.
00:28You have to hope maybe they weren't effective. Maybe the way the Trump administration's representative isn't true.
00:34So let's take half-truths, spun information, leaked information, and then spin it, spin it in every way we can to try to cause doubt,
00:46and manipulate the mind, the public mind over whether or not our brave pilots were successful.
00:53There are so many aspects of what our brave men and women did that, because of the hatred of this press corps, are undermined,
01:01because people are trying to leak and spin that it wasn't successful. It's irresponsible.
