Hegseth To Face Congressional Grilling Over Signalgate

ABC News reports:

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is scheduled to appear before Congress on June 10 in what will be his first public testimony since The Atlantic revealed he used the messaging app Signal to relay sensitive details about a pending military operation with others, including his personal attorney and his wife.

Hegseth, who has not held a news conference since being sworn in as Pentagon chief, is expected to appear before both the House and Senate Appropriations defense subcommittees.

The subject will be the Trump administration’s upcoming 2026 budget request. But the hearing is also expected to include sharp questioning from Democrats on Hegseth’s use of Signal app, which is now part of an ongoing investigation being led by the Defense Department’s Inspector General Office.

This isn’t a “glitch.” This is deliberate, dangerous, and disqualifying.

He’s a severe national security threat. Fire him.
