The confirmation of Donald Trump's defense secretary nominee Pete Hegseth remains uncertain. Trump's support for veterans remains steadfast, but Hegseth's past accusations of sexual misconduct and alcohol abuse, accusations of women in Hegseth's previous combat service; It is also losing support in the Senate among Republicans. So-called “inexperienced”.
Hegseth was cleared of all charges of sexual misconduct, and almost all charges of alcohol abuse were made anonymously. Hegseth has repeatedly denied and debunked all charges brought against him. Since his nomination, he has also softened many of his previous statements about women serving in combat roles. As for his “lack of experience,” only the naysayers take issue with his history.
Still he failed to secure Republican votes. Senator Lisa Murkowski Republican from Alaska senator susan collins of Maine. As expected, all Democrats voted against him.

“President Trump doesn't want someone who was in the Pentagon. … He wants someone who will take care of our warfighters, someone who will represent them, but he wants someone who is politicized. It's not all the woke stuff coming from the generals,” he explains.
But Democrats and RINOs didn't want reform, so they orchestrated a character assassination against Pete Hegseth.
That's why Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Va.) asked Hegseth during his confirmation hearing:
“I mentioned it a minute ago. [something] This incident occurred in Monterey, California in October 2017. You were still married to your second wife at that time, right? And you just had a child with the woman who would become your third wife, right? ”
“What is this all about?” Levin asked, adding that the line of questioning was “the party of Joe Biden, who sniffs girls' hair and rubs their shoulders, and the party of Bill Clinton, who is a serial molester.” He pointed out that it was coming from.
Kane went on to slam Hegseth for his infidelity. You took an oath to do that, right? ”
“What's the point in going there, other than to create some kind of drama?” Levin asks.
“This is disgusting. … This process is intended for the Senate to determine whether someone is qualified for the president to hope for the high office,” he explains.
But the Senate is instead using this process to bring Hegseth's past into the public domain and assume the role of moral arbiter.
As Levin watched the hearing, he thought to himself, “You son of a bitch, the Capitol is a haven for grotesque power-hungry politicians who cheat on their wives and lie to the American people.''
