YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

During the December 2, 2025, cabinet meeting — the final cabinet meeting of the year — viewers noticed an odd detail on Pete Hegseth’s nameplate: it read “ssecretary of war,” complete with an extra “S.” The small typo quickly caught attention online as clips from the meeting circulated. This video shows the moment.
