U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is under scrutiny for sharing sensitive military information about planned U.S. strikes against the Houthis in Yemen via Signal chats. President Trump continues to publicly support Hegseth, dismissing the leaks as 'fake news' and insisting no classified information was shared. This controversy follows Hegseth's previous leak incidents and has drawn bipartisan criticism, with Rep. Don Bacon expressing discomfort over Hegseth's continued leadership. Amidst calls for his resignation and reports of dysfunction within the Pentagon, Hegseth defended his actions as a media attack driven by disgruntled former aides.
