Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth believes that “blowing s*** up” is the best way to keep his job, as he swiftly backed President Donald Trump’s plans to launch an attack on Iran, according to a report.
The Pentagon chief was “one of Trump’s biggest cheerleaders” for pressing ahead with the war in Iran, now entering its fifth week, and “downplayed the inherent risks of the conflict spiraling out of control,” according to a CNN report, citing three sources familiar with the matter.
