The Senate checked Pete Heagces on Friday on a dramatic late -night voting, and repeated questions about the qualifications led by Pentagon in a large amount of alcohol and aggressive actions to women. 。
Cabinet candidates are rarely faced such a wide range of concerns, especially in the roles of such attention on the US military, his experience and actions like Hiogs. However, the Republican -led Senate confirms Hesus, a former Fox News host, who has pledged to bring the “warrior culture” to the Prime Minister, who concludes President Donald Trump’s top state security ministers. I decided.
Vice President JD VANCE was at hand in the Senate to gain more wider support, to vote in unusual votes in the Senate. Hesces himself was in the Parliament Hall with his family.
John Tune, the majority of the Senate, said, “A warrior’s perspective is given to” military work “as a veteran of the Army National Guard, who has been touring in Iraq and Afghanistan.
“I’m distracted in the age of waking up,” said Thune, saying that the federal government as a whole has been reduced in diversity, fairness, and comprehensive initiatives. “Pentagon’s focus is in the battle.”
Despite a series of filing a series of complaints, the Senate’s ability to confirm Hegstess provides Trump’s political power, what he wants from the GOP -led parliament, and the ability of the cultural war. White house.
Next week, Senator will face the choice of other external trumps, including Trump’s ally, an ally of Trump, who released an enemy list as an FBI director. Tarushi GabaD as a director of the National Intelligence Bureau. Robert F. Kennedy, JR, Health and Human Services anti -Waksin advocates.
“Is Pete Hegousz really the best we need to provide?” Senator Jack Reed, a member of Road Island, a top Democratic Party member of the Senate’s armed service committee, seriously consider his colleagues about voting. He said he urged him.
Hegseth himself called him to strengthen his support late on Friday.
“He is a good man,” said Trump, who left the White House and visited North Carolina and Los Angeles, a disaster, and talked about Hegoses. “I hope he will make it.”
Trump has announced that Alaska’s Senator Lisa Marcovski and Susan Collins in the main state will be criticized and votes against Hegs. TUMP has raised a new question about Mitch McConnell.
Eventually, all three votes against Hegstess.
McConnell, a former Senate GOP leader, did not declare voting, but was skeptical in his previous speech. He opposed it.
To confirm HEGSETH, a simple majority, and Republican members with a majority of 53 to 47 in the Senate could only lose another objection.
One Republican member of the Senator Tom Tilis in North Carolina said that he was familiar with the situation on Thursday, saying that the Senate swirled, swirled, and provided information and answers.
However, Tilis ultimately votes to confirm Hesces, who said he had a unique perspective, and was passionate about modernizing the army. He said he talked about his concerns with Hesces for “almost 2 hours.”
The Democratic Party as a minority party will vote on the Trump’s National Security Team in a few days after returning to the White House to determine the votes of Secretary of State Marco Rubio and CIA John Latcriffs. I helped.
However, the Democratic Party, who is seriously opposed to Hians, rely on the process of dragging the process, with little power to stop him.
A few hours before the voting, the Democratic Party members took them to the Senate floor and opposed them.
D-Conn. Senator Chris Murphy said in a discussion that Trump’s candidates were almost “not qualified at all.”
Hesces faced a claim that he had sexually assaulted a woman at a California Republican meeting, but he denied the claim and had agreed. He later paid a woman $ 50,000.
Recently, Hegoses’s former sister -in -law stated that he was abusing his second wife in the oath statement that he was afraid of her safety. HEGSETH has denied the claim, and in the divorce procedure, neither HegSeth nor women claim to be a victim of home abuse.
In a burning confirmation hearing, Hesceth rejected the claims of misconduct one by one, swearing to bring a “warrior culture” to Pentagon’s top post.
HEGSETH promised not to drink at work if it was confirmed.
However, the Republican Senator is facing intensive pressure campaigns to support Hegzes by Trump Allies, supporting his nomination and reflecting the claims of the “coating mushroom” campaign.
Hegs, a graduate of Princeton and Harvard University, represents a new generation of veterans who have become older in the aftermath of the attack on September 11, 2001. He went to Fox News as a host for the weekend show, and was not known to Capitol Hill, until Trump took him to the top defense work.
Hix comment that women should not play a role in military combat, causing special concerns about Capitol Hill. Later, when he met the Senator during the confirmation process, he relieved his views.
Murkowski said in a long statement prior to HegSeth’s test voting, and his actions were “completely contrasting” as expected by the army.
“I am worried about the message that Hegoses is currently working and the message to confirm that she will send it to a woman who is aiming for participation,” Murkowski wrote on social media.
After a long discussion with Hegs, Collins said, “I am not convinced that his position for women working in the role of battle has changed.”
However, the famous Republican member, Senator Joni Ernst, a veteran, a veteran and sexual assault survivor, under the severe criticism of Hesthes, and eventually announced that she would support him. did.
HEGSETH will lead about 2.1 million services, about 780,000 civilians, and an organization with a budget of $ 850 billion.
When exercising the role of advice and consent to Trump’s candidates, the Senate will simply abolish the confirmation process and appoint the Cabinet selection when the parliament is closed. I’m trying to stop his proposal.
Trump has raised an idea of ​​a so -called “break appointment” at a private White House conference between Toon and the House of Representatives, Mike Johnson, a step that many Senator is trying to avoid.
