Pete Hegseth, Donald Trump’s nominee for Secretary of Defense, faced a contentious Senate confirmation hearing, with lawmakers scrutinizing his personal conduct, controversial remarks, and qualifications. Democratic senators pressed Hegseth on allegations of sexual misconduct, excessive alcohol use, and financial mismanagement, while also challenging his past comments on women in combat roles. Hegseth defended himself, claiming a coordinated smear campaign and pledging to restore a "warrior culture" to the Pentagon. His confirmation hinges on Republican unity in the Senate, with a vote expected after Trump’s inauguration.
