- President Donald Trump tuned into Pete Hegseth’s fiery press conference on Tuesday morning and gave him an “A PLUS, PLUS, PLUS” immediately afterward.
- Hegseth called a rare Pentagon news conference to blast articles of impeachment filed against him by Rep. Thomas Massie.
- “Pete Hegseth gets an ‘A’ PLUS, PLUS, PLUS for his defense against a disgruntled, angry, defeated, former Congressman, Thomas Massie, a TOTAL LOSER!” Trump wrote on Truth Social minutes after Hegseth’s speech.
