President-elect Donald Trump's nominee for Defense Secretary, Pete Hegseth, is facing increasing scrutiny as he meets with Republican senators on Capitol Hill. Hegseth, a former Fox News co-host and Army National Guard member, is under fire due to a sexual assault allegation and reports about his work conduct.
Despite the allegations, Hegseth remains committed to meeting with all senators and seeking their advice during the confirmation process. Some senators, like Lindsey Graham and Josh Hawley, have expressed concerns about the reports but are willing to give Hegseth a chance to address them.
