Pete Hegseth’s Pentagon Feels Under Siege

Punchbowl News: “This was a huge week for embattled Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.”

“He successfully engineered an all-of-administration push to bolster his defenses against an impeachment resolution. Hegseth and his allies managed to get enough House Republicans back to Washington to soundly defeat the vote. The win staves off another challenge to Hegseth’s controversial tenure at the helm of the Pentagon until at least January.”

“But in the lead-up to House action, it seemed clear the Defense Department’s highest ranks felt they were under siege.”

The Guardian: Democrats fumbled the Hegseth impeachment. That could be a blessing in disguise.
