๐บ๐ธโก๏ธ โ Secretary of War Pete Hegseth intends to remain in office until the end of President Trump's term, even if Democrats regain control of Congress and launch investigations into his leadership, according to WaPo. Democrats are preparing to investigate military operations, the dismissal of senior officers, and potential irregularities in Pentagon defense contracts. Despite the prospect of intensified congressional scrutiny, Hegseth has no plans to resign and intends to pursue his priorities over the next two years, including establishing a new U.S. military base and introducing advanced weapons systems.
