13:09Now PlayingQuestions about U.S. military strikes, civilian infrastructure, transparency, and accountability are creating new controversy for Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
In this episode of The Michael Cohen Show, Michael Cohen examines Hegseth's response to questions regarding reports that a U.S. strike may have damaged a water distribution facility near the Strait of Hormuz. Cohen breaks down the exchange, discusses why journalists continue pressing for answers, and explores whether concerns about transparency are being adequately addressed by the administration.
The discussion also looks at the broader role of the Pentagon, the responsibility of public officials to answer difficult questions, military operations in the Middle East, rising tensions with Iran, and the increasingly public nature of conversations surrounding potential military action. Cohen also reacts to Hegseth's recent public appearances, comments about the media, and the ongoing debate over how national security decisions are communicated to the American people.
