GOP senators question Hegseth's leadership after weapons 'goof-up' [View all]

(The Hill) Republican senators say reports that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth froze weapons shipments to Ukraine without getting approval from President Trump raise serious questions about the level of coordination between the White House and Pentagon and warrants a closer review of the matter by Congress.

GOP lawmakers say the weapons freeze may have been the result of “miscommunication” between Trump and Hegseth.

A senior Senate Republican aide called it “a clear goof-up on a lot of levels.”

Some GOP sources on Capitol Hill warn that if Hegseth or senior members of his team acted to deliberately circumvent the commander in chief, it would pose a serious problem that would need to be addressed.
