Did Democratic senators remind Hegseth that we had a nuclear agree with Iran that was working?

That would have been my sole line of questioning because Obama's deal was working, but Trump ripped it up. This can never be talked about enough.

Our senator, Chris Coons, did a good job of holding him to that question, not that he would answer. It’s obvious they have no clue what they’re doing. He thinks talking tough and bluster will get through this. He doesn’t know the Middle East.

The bluster and bullying works here very well, unfortunately.

But, its all they know and is completely lost on the folks they are dealing with over there.

attacking Iran was like a video game, then maybe someone should have steered them to WarGames, a 1982 movie about a simulated nuclear threat against Russia...the conclusion: no way in hell was a "win" viable...
