@cspanofficial: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth defended the Iran war on Tuesday when asked whether he agreed with Vice President JD Vance's assessment that the conflict was "the reason" Republicans suffered sweeping losses in last week's midterm elections. "I respect the vice president greatly, and I’m certainly not going to exchange in any finger-pointing, and thankfully, politics is not really my thing," he told reporters at a Pentagon briefing. "I do the Department of War and making sure we’re prepared and ready, so a lot of people are going to look at the conflict and assess it, and the vice president has been a critical member of the team in every aspect of this, and we’re grateful for all the input he’s given me personally and our department." Secretary Hegseth said the war was "done for the right reasons" and that he would do it all again. "As Marco Rubio said, I think quite well, it's not necessarily popular, but it may have been necessary, and that's certainly how I feel," he said. "It was a necessary undertaking." #petehegseth #iran #iranwar #jdvance #cspan

The department of defense should be well versed in diplomacy which is essentially politics. Has anyone seen the plot? Whiskey Pete is done
