YouTube Description
as posted by the channelSen. Chris Murphy confronted Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth in a tense hearing about the Qatar plane scandal, the unexplained billion-dollar retrofit plan, and the shocking possibility that taxpayers may fund a temporary Air Force One that Trump has already said he will transfer to his presidential library after leaving office.
Murphy then pressed Hegseth on an even more critical issue: whether he supports deploying the National Guard to defend the U.S. Capitol during violent attacks like January 6. Hegseth refused to say yes, raising major concerns about political favoritism, double standards, and his willingness to defend American democracy.
This exchange highlights deep questions about loyalty, national security integrity, and whether the Defense Department is being used to protect the country — or to protect Donald Trump.
