A private Senate meeting got tense when Senator Mark Kelly challenged Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth about recent military actions. Instead of answering, Hegseth brought up an investigation into Kelly himself. The meeting was classified and behind closed doors, with all U.S. senators present.
According to HuffPost, Kelly, a Democrat from Arizona, was sitting close to Hegseth when he asked about U.S. military strikes on suspected drug boats near Venezuela. Hegseth didn’t answer the question. Instead, he mentioned a video that Kelly and other Democratic lawmakers made, which the Pentagon is now investigating.
