Aboard Air Force One over the weekend, U.S. President Donald Trump was asked whether the U.S. had bombed Iran’s Shajareh Tayyebeh Elementary School in Minab, killing 175, almost all girls between 7 and 12 years of age.

Trump: “No. In my opinion, based on what I’ve seen, that was done by Iran.”

Hegseth: “We’re certainly investigating.”

R: “Still investigating?” Hegseth had repeated his pat non-answer, but he added a new twist.
