White House press secretary Leavitt said on Aug. 5 a Washington Post report that
President Trump and Defense Secretary Hegseth argued at Camp David over severe
US missile and munitions shortages tied to the Iran conflict was "fake news."
Leavitt said she was at Camp David with Trump and Hegseth and the incident did
not occur, and that they have repeatedly told the Washington Post the same. The
Washington Post, citing sources, reported on Aug. 5 that last week Trump
expressed strong displeasure at Camp David and demanded an explanation from
Hegseth over an alleged weapons shortfall.
