It was another great episode of President Donald Trump taking on the media yesterday. Trump signed an executive order limiting mail-in ballots, which caused liberals to panic. States have already indicated they will challenge the order in court, as expected. So, naturally, question time came, and Trump didn't hold back from addressing the Iranian propaganda being spread by the press pool.
Reporter Jeff Mason was sharply rebuked by Trump over Tehran’s threats against tech companies if the targeted killings of their political and military personnel continue. What threats? Trump questioned how Iran would threaten these individuals, which led to a blunt rebuke, ending with the president stating that anyone there who could retaliate is already dead.
🚨 OMG. President Trump is TOYING with them now 😭

MASON: Iran threatened US tech companies
TRUMP: With WHAT? What did they threaten them with? BB guns? They don't have much left to threaten. 😂
MASON: My question for you is—
TRUMP: YOU made a statement. What did they threaten them with? I don't know. Tell me. How did they threaten them?
MASON: All I know is that they threatened them, sir
TRUMP: What does that mean?
MASON: Fair enough
TRUMP: They said something nasty?
MASON: Are you helping the companies?
TRUMP: You don't even know what the threat WAS! What was the threat? I haven't heard it. What was the threat? Did they say they're going to blow them up? You know what they're not going to do? They're not going to hit them with a nuclear weapon!
This is a pattern for third-rate loser @jeffmason1 https://t.co/1EiMiww46K

NewsNation also caught some heat, too.
Come prepared, folks, or you’ll get cooked.
