Democrats DESTROY Trump Nominee in LIVE Hearing - Mary Trump Media



Mary dives into the confirmation hearing for Pete Hegseth, President Trump's nominee for Secretary of Defense. The hearing exposed Hegseth's alarming lack of qualifications, his history of sexual assault accusations, and his controversial views on women in the military. Senators like Tim Kaine and Elizabeth Warren grilled Hegseth on his fitness for the role, while Republicans attempted to deflect and defend his candidacy. As the hearing continues, it's clear that Hegseth's nomination is more about loyalty to Trump than actual competence to lead the Department of Defense. - 01/14/2025.

the Dems needed to convince enough rebubs to vote against his nomination. From all the analysis’s I’ve heard, they failed to do that. Hegseth will most likely be confirmed.

While he was meeting all the Democratic senators for the first time and their time to ask questions was limited.
