Trump Caught Openly Instructing Fox Reporter To Say Cabinet Meeting Was 'Unbelievable'

As the live video feed of Donald Trump's first cabinet meeting was about to end, Trump instructed Lawrence Jones of Fox News to give the meeting favorable coverage.

On Wednesday, Republican President Donald Trump held his first cabinet meeting since returning to office for his second term, and he wants to make sure the public gets word about its smashing success...according to him.

It was a cringefest all around, as Elon Musk stood up to defend DOGE's many mistakes and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. downplayed the measles epidemic playing out in Texas even after a child died.


As reporters filed out of the room after the meeting wrapped up, Trump told Fox News host Lawrence Jones:

“Lawrence, say we did a great job, please."

He added:

"Say it was unbelievable!”

The Associated Press shared the video of him barking orders under the guise of his typical raillery, sitting with former Fox co-host, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth.

The moment caught on camera can be seen here.

While it is nothing surprising to see him glorifying himself on social media for how he runs the country, his blatant advisement on camera with a hot mic to amplify his self-approving conduct made the internet collectively eye-roll.


Unbelievably pathetic.

Fox takes its orders from Trump, Trump takes his orders from Putin. Understand the hierarchy.

It was "unbelievable," in the most vile and evil of ways.

Critics on X (formerly Twitter) thought Trump's behavior was pathetic.



Others thought the media was losing all integrity under the current administration.





On Tuesday, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt announced that Trump's Administration would have direct control over the press pool to cover the President, which was historically designated by the White House Correspondents’ Association.

Said Leavitt at a press meeting:

“It’s beyond time that the White House press operation reflects the media habits of the American people in 2025, not 1925."
"A select group of DC-based journalists should no longer have a monopoly over the privilege of press access at the White House,

The decision came after a judge denied the Associated Press's bid to restore access to presidential events after its two-week exclusion from the White House.

In recent days, the Trump administration has come under fire for the Signal chat scandal, in which top officials discussed war plans in Yemen on an unsecured server; deported a man to El Salvador and defended the move because the man had "traffic violations;" has continued to court controversy over Trump's repeated threats to annex Greenland; has further aggravated relations with Canada; and launched a global trade war that has sent markets tumbling.
