MSNBC host questions if Trump just divulged classified info on Truth Social

Following Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's contentious Pentagon press conference, Donald Trump fired off a pair of posts about the event including one that raised the eyebrows of MSNBC's Jonathan Lemire.

With the "Morning Joe" host pointing out that Hegseth's abrasive performance seemed like it was only aimed at pleasing the president, he first added that it seems to have had its desired effect.

He reported Trump wrote on Truth Social: "One of the greatest, most professional, and most 'confirming' News Conferences I have ever seen! The Fake News should fire everyone involved in this Witch Hunt, and apologize to our great warriors, and everyone else!"

The MSNBC host then remarked, "To be clear, no one was belittling the heroism of the troops involved."

He then added, "And then just moments ago, this one really caught our attention. Trump followed up with another post, seemingly addressing the question that was asked at the news conference a couple of different times; the question on whether Iran removed enriched uranium before the U.S. strikes."

"The president wrote this: 'The cars and small trucks at the site were those of concrete workers trying to cover up the top of the shafts. Nothing was taken out of facility. Would take too long, too dangerous, and very heavy and hard to move!'"

"Two quick notes on that," he cautioned. "First of all, it's unclear, assuming the president –– he might be sharing something there that has not been unclassified. We don't know if indeed that is the truth, what he is saying. But it also, we should note that some experts in this field have said it actually wouldn't have been that difficult to transport the enriched uranium out of the site. We simply don't know whether or not that occurred. That is part of the ongoing assessment. We, of course, will keep you posted."
