Sen. Tim Sheehy, R-Mont. questioned defense secretary nominee Pete Hegseth in a confirmation hearing Tuesday held by the Senate Committee on Armed Services.
Sheehy asked several questions, including how many genders there are, the diameter of a specific rifle round, and how many push-ups Hegseth could do. He also asked what Hegseth's No. 1 priority would be.
"I'm grateful that President Trump has said definitively, to me and publicly, that shipbuilding will be one of his absolute top priorities of this administration. So a lot of it does go into pulling things up into the OSD's office, Secretary of Defense's office, to shine a spotlight on it to make sure the bureau bureaucracy doesn't strangle important initiatives that need to happen," Hegseth said.
Hegseth is a military veteran and conservative media personality. President-elect Donald Trump’s pick for defense secretary has faced allegations of sexual misconduct and excessive drinking, and been criticized as a nominee for his controversial views on diversity and religion in the military.
