Republican senators have expressed a loss of confidence in Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth over the Iran war and a series of high-profile firings, according to a report.
A number of GOP lawmakers told The Hill they found the recent removal of senior figures in the U.S. military “troubling”, and raised concerns about the way the stalling Middle East conflict had become a “quagmire”.
Duhhh...do ya think..🤔

@maddad@mastodon.world "loss of confidence" LOL LOL LOL....... [stopped to prevent lapse into hysteria] These lying fascists never had confidence that Hegseth would be adequate in the first place. They just don't like being so publically linked with Hegseth's stupidity and incompetence.
