Pete Hegseth Hearing LIVE!

The confirmation hearing for Pete Hegseth, President-elect Donald Trump’s pick to lead the Pentagon, is underway.

Hegseth is expected to be questioned by the Senate Armed Services Committee over allegations including sexual assault and excessive drinking in the workplace.

Hegseth has denied all accusations and made several trips to Capitol Hill to shore up support since he was announced as Trump’s pick, including meeting with senators as recently as last week.
