Liar, liar: White House accused of misleading public about strikes in Caribbean

White House’s efforts to shield Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth from the fallout from the US’ strikes against boats in the Caribbean have come under fire from Democrats who insist that the US government is lying.

🗣 “The White House been caught in another lie,” tweeted pro-Democrat social media influencer Harry Sisson.

💬 “After claiming Pete Hegseth didn’t know anything about the strikes in the Caribbean, footage has resurfaced of him in September saying he watched it live.”

Cynthia... video where Trump says Hegseth didn't know about the second strike, was posted here today.

Adding:  BREAKING | Six U.S. Navy P-8A Poseidons launched from Florida, all flying separate routes into the Caribbean.

The P-8A is a maritime patrol and anti-submarine warfare aircraft used for surveillance, tracking surface vessels, and coordinating naval operations.

Seeing six at once departing toward the Caribbean is unusual.
