Lindsey Graham and Markwayne Mullin Back Pete Hegseth Amid Anonymous Allegations, Expect Confirmation After Momentum Grows
Dec 15, 2024, 03:14 PM
Senator Lindsey Graham expressed strong support for Pete Hegseth amid allegations against him, stating he believes Hegseth's account and that the claims are anonymous. Graham indicated that unless credible evidence emerges, he expects Hegseth to be confirmed. Senator Markwayne Mullin echoed this sentiment, asserting that Hegseth is likely to win over both the American public and some Democratic Senate votes. Graham emphasized his long-standing friendship with Hegseth, noting their history since meeting in Afghanistan, and described the allegations as disturbing yet lacking credible sources. Reports suggest that Hegseth's nomination is gaining momentum in the Senate, improving significantly compared to two weeks prior, with Graham affirming, “I think he’s going to get through.”
