8:28Now PlayingSenator Jeanne Shaheen presses Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth over the devastating impact of Trump-era steel and aluminum tariffs on America’s defense supply chain. She exposes how these tariffs — sold as “America First” — have actually delayed military manufacturing, crippled small defense contractors, and jeopardized national readiness. Hegseth dodges, deflects, and praises Trump’s trade policies, but Shaheen isn’t having it.
From skyrocketing lead times to the real cost of "bringing manufacturing home," this hearing reveals the hidden consequences of economic nationalism on our military strength. Shaheen also calls out Trump’s hypocrisy on Ukraine and reminds viewers why facts matter.
