  • U.S. Sen. Joni Ernst, who is a military veteran, said she had a "thorough" conversation with defense secretary nominee Pete Hegseth.

The article from MSN discusses Senator Joni Ernst's reservations about confirming Pete Hegseth as U.S. Defense Secretary. Ernst, a Republican from Iowa and a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, expressed concerns about Hegseth's lack of experience in managing large organizations, despite acknowledging his military service and conservative credentials. She emphasized the need for a Defense Secretary who can effectively oversee the Department of Defense's vast operations and budget. This hesitation comes amidst discussions on Capitol Hill regarding potential candidates for key administration positions, highlighting the importance of experience and capability in such critical roles.
