Pentagon press secretary Kingsley Wilson on Friday threatened to pull the Washington Post’s access to Defense Department facilities after it published a report highlighting Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s security personnel and homes.
The Washington Post article, which was published Wednesday, seemed to criticize Hegseth for pulling Army Criminal Investigation Division (CID) agents from criminal investigations to protect Hegseth’s family residences in Minnesota, Tennessee and Washington, D.C.
The Pentagon has defended Hegseth’s security detail as instrumental to his safety due to the current threat environment, and claimed the outlet’s reporting constitutes “doxxing.”
The outlet did not give precise locations of the homes, such as the addresses, nor the size of Hegseth’s security detail.
