Sen Scott: great meeting with Pete Hegseth; Senator Graham: I served with him in Afghanistan

Senator Scott: “I just had a great meeting with Pete Hegseth, the next Secretary of Defense. I’ll tell you why I support him: I admire people who are willing to put on the uniform and lead troops into battle… When he goes in the Department of Defense, he will walk in with the mentality that he’s going to take care of our warfighters.”

Senator Lindsey Graham: “I’ve known Pete Hegseth for a long time. I served with him in Afghanistan. The people over there said nothing but great things about him. The allegations against Pete are all anonymous sources. I am not going to make ANY decision based on an anonymous source. If you’re not willing to raise your hand under oath and make the accusation, it doesn’t count.”

Sen. Ron Johnson: “He laid forward a very convincing case in terms of what his priorities would be as Secretary of Defense and it’s return the American military to a military focused on defending this nation, that is lethal, that is not concerned about wokeness and DEI.”

Incoming White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller lays out the first 100 days of the new Trump administration:

• RAPID deregulation of American energy exploration

• The border sealed SHUT

• Peace RESTORED to the world

• A government that is accountable to THE PEOPLE
