Secretary of War Pete Hegseth intends to remain in office until the end of President Trump's term, even if Democrats gain control of Congress and launch investigations into his leadership, according to the WaPo. Democrats are preparing to investigate military operations, the firing of senior officers and possible irregularities in Pentagon defense contracts. Despite the prospect of increased congressional scrutiny, Hesset has no intention of resigning and intends to continue his priorities over the next two years, including building a new US military base and introducing advanced weapons systems.
