8:32Now PlayingSenator Angus King sharply challenged Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth over the administration's decision to restore military base names associated with Confederate-era figures. The exchange quickly evolved into a larger debate about American history, military tradition, and whether honoring Confederate leaders is compatible with modern American values.
King repeatedly questioned the motivation behind the decision, while Hegseth defended it as a matter of military identity and tradition.
Watch this breakdown of one of the most memorable moments from the hearing and decide for yourself: Is this preserving history or revisiting a chapter America should leave behind?
