Pete Hegseth was confirmed this evening despite Liz Warren’s last-minute salacious gossip. All Democrats were opposed, and three Republicans voted against him.
Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), Susan Collins (R-ME), and Mitch McConnell (R-KY) voted against Mr. Hegseth. All three voted for Biden’s choice, Lloyd Austin.
Hegseth could only lose three votes with Vice President Vance stepping in. Republicans control the Senate 53-47. Hegseth was approved 51-50, with Vance casting the deciding vote.
Collins and Murkowski were always a “no” and are barely Republican. As for Mitch, he’s a RINO backstabber.
