Pete Hegseth's Iran War Delusions Exposed By Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand - Reflect Politics

Watch Democratic Senator Kirsten Gillibrand deliver a blistering takedown of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth during a heated Senate Armed Services Committee hearing. Gillibrand presses Hegseth on the Trump administration’s handling of the Iran war, exposing major flaws in strategy, leadership, and accountability.

As the conflict’s cost surges past $25 billion and concerns grow over civilian casualties, troop safety, and a lack of clear objectives, tensions explode on Capitol Hill.

Gillibrand demands answers on why American troops were put at risk, why the administration continues a costly war without clear authorization, and whether Hegseth is truly prepared to lead during one of the most dangerous geopolitical crises in years.
