Republicans Have Lost Confidence in Pete Hegseth

Tara Palmeri: “Over the weekend, I spoke with Republican sources in the administration, on Capitol Hill, and on K Street about what they are really saying behind closed doors about the war in Iran.”

“What emerged was a picture of growing unease: no clear plan to end the conflict, frustration with how Israel is handling it, anxiety about wider escalation across the region, and deep discomfort with the administration’s wartime posture, especially at the Pentagon.”

One Senate source put it bluntly: “There’s zero confidence in Pete Hegseth.”
