"President Trump dialed in a "Fox & Friends" co-host to weigh in on legislation about veterans’ health care during a meeting with Veterans Affairs (VA) Secretary David Shulkin, Axios reported Sunday.
Shulkin and Trump were discussing legislation to reform veterans' health care during an Oval Office meeting last week when Trump reportedly called "Fox & Friends" co-host Pete Hegseth to get his opinion.
Hegseth, a veteran and former executive director of advocacy group Vets For Freedom, was among those considered to be VA secretary under Trump. Trump is a frequent viewer of Fox News, including the morning show.
Sources told Axios that the phone call put Shulkin in an uncomfortable spot, as Hegseth is pushing for more intense reforms and interviewed for Shulkin’s job."
