U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth fired the head of the Pentagon's intelligence agency and two other senior military commanders, three U.S. officials told Reuters on Friday, the latest move by President Donald Trump's administration to purge officials at the Pentagon.
Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth competed in a fitness challenge of 50 pullups and 100 pushups under five minutes.
The Washington Post article criticized Hegseth for pulling Army Criminal Investigation Division agents from criminal investigations to protect Hegseth’s family residences in Minnesota, Tennessee and Washington,
Lt. Gen. Jeffrey Kruse was fired as head of the Defense Intelligence Agency the same week the Air Force's top general hastily retired.
The Pentagon clarified on Thursday that Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth thinks women should have the right to vote, despite his sharing of CNN reporting which featured religious leaders he supports saying they would back the repealing of the 19th Amendment.
Washington Post faces criticism for publishing sensitive information about defense secretary Pete Hegseth's protective security arrangements and requirements.
Pete Hegseth is apparently following Donald Trump’s lead in more ways than one. A new social media video pushing a MAGA-coded fitness challenge has revealed the defense secretary has redecorated the Pentagon with photos—of himself.
