U.S. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth faces a series of fiery confrontations on Capitol Hill as Democratic lawmakers press him over the cost, strategy and consequences of Donald Trump’s war against Iran. Maggie Goodlander demands answers over an alleged $25 billion gap in the Pentagon’s accounting, while Pete Aguilar questions whether the costly military campaign is actually delivering results.
In another heated exchange, Sara Jacobs challenges Hegseth over whether President Donald Trump is stable enough to lead the country. Hegseth fires back by asking whether Jacobs raised the same question about Joe Biden. The clashes put Hegseth under mounting pressure as Congress scrutinises the Iran war, its financial toll and the Trump administration’s broader military strategy.
