Multiple reports say Donald Trump posts on Truth Social to express his views about Pentagon nominee Pete Hegseth following a public rant accusing “treasonous leakers” of undermining US efforts. The coverage links the posts to ongoing concerns that the United States’ war effort—particularly around operations connected to Iran—has reduced available supplies of precision munitions. While the outlets describe Trump’s reaction as pointed, they frame it in the context of a broader disagreement about how information and weapons inventories are managed. The Independent characterizes Trump’s message as making his feelings clear and ties it to complaints about leaks and the state of stockpiles. Yahoo UK News repeats the same basic focus on Trump’s comments about Hegseth and the “leakers” controversy, without adding a distinctly different account. Across the reports, the central elements are Trump’s public criticism, the dispute involving alleged leakers, and references to potential shortages in precision weaponry attributed to the demands of the ongoing conflict. None of the provided extracts specify additional new evidence or new official figures about stockpile levels.
