White House melts down with vulgar response after being called out on stunning reversal

The Trump administration was raging on Tuesday, dropping a bizarre comeback after it was called out over previous claims involving the Iran war.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt reversed her comments from last week, when she was critical of an ABC News report and blamed the outlet in a post on X for "providing false information to intentionally alarm the American people."

"TO BE CLEAR: No such threat from Iran to our homeland exists, and it never did," Leavitt wrote.

But the White House was furious after people started noting the apparent change in tune from the Trump administration and clapped back with a surprising response on X.

"No such threat to our homeland of Iran launching a drone offensive on our West Coast, dumba----. The nuclear threat of the psychotic, murderous Iranian regime is very real, however. Thank God we finally have a President who's doing something about it," the White House Rapid Response account on X wrote.

Leavitt earlier Tuesday had responded on X with a lengthy post pointing to a public statement from U.S. intelligence official Joe Kent. Kent had resigned publicly via X and, in his letter to President Donald Trump, cited his reasons for leaving his position that Trump appointed him to, insisting that Iran had not posed an imminent threat.

"There are many false claims in this letter but let me address one specifically: that 'Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation,'" Leavitt wrote in rebuttal to Kent's resignation letter. "This is the same false claim that Democrats and some in the liberal media have been repeating over and over."
