Was Donald Trump angry with Pete Hegseth over US weapons shortage? President breaks silence, says, ‘US has massive amounts of munitions’

President Donald Trump has publicly addressed reports suggesting a rift between his administration and Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth regarding the state of United States military stockpiles. Amid speculation concerning missile and air-defence shortages, the President firmly denied that he had confronted Hegseth over the issue, characterizing the reports as inaccurate.

During his remarks, President Trump asserted that the United States maintains a robust inventory of munitions, stating, 'US has massive amounts of munitions.' The President dismissed the narrative of a supply crisis, emphasizing the strength and readiness of the nation's defense capabilities. His comments serve as a direct rebuttal to recent media suggestions that the administration is struggling to manage its weapons reserves during the ongoing geopolitical tensions involving Iran.

Furthermore, the President addressed the source of the leaked information that fueled these reports. He stated that those responsible for leaking internal government information are currently being 'hunted down,' signaling a firm commitment to identifying and addressing the unauthorized disclosure of sensitive defense-related data. The administration maintains that the integrity of its strategic communications and defense planning remains a top priority as it navigates the current international security landscape.
