Our troops deserve better than someone as erratic and unqualified as Pete Hegseth.

Is Pete Hegseth really the best Republicans have to lead the greatest military in the world?
Is Pete Hegseth—who failed to manage the finances of veterans’ nonprofit groups, who drove his organizations into debt to the point where he could not even pay creditors—really the person Republicans want in charge of the Pentagon’s budget?
Best of luck to Florida or Louisiana without FEMA next time they get hit by a hurricane.

When Americans are in dire need, like after hurricanes, floods, and fires, attacking their lifeline of aid in FEMA shows no understanding of how real people suffer.

Is Pete Hegseth really the best Republicans have for Secretary of Defense?
Is he really the guy you want on the other end of the phone at 2AM in a crisis?

One of Donald Trump’s Executive Orders killed policies that provided a year of postpartum care for moms with Medicaid.
How is that anyone’s idea of a Golden Age?
Now do UFOs.
One of Donald Trump’s Executive Orders repealed policies that make it easier for twenty million Americans to enroll in the Affordable Care Act and pay less for health care.
One of Donald Trump’s Executive Orders halted leasing and permitting for wind energy projects in the outer continental shelf.
And what does that mean?
It strains our grid—which needs more energy not less—and could raise prices and threaten good-paying jobs in the US, in NY, on Long Island.
With the ferocity of a bulldozer, Donald Trump has spent his first few days in office dismantling decades of progress that has helped working people, helped middle-class families, helped people afford health care.
President Trump’s Executive Orders make it obvious that no Golden Age is coming to America—unless you’re one of the wealthiest few, you’re well-connected, or you own a Big Oil or Big Pharma company.
Is Pete Hegseth really the best that Republicans have to offer?
How on Earth can America entrust our safety and security to a man who has allegedly shown up to work inebriated?
What if Pete Hegseth continues that type of erratic behavior at the Pentagon?
This is dangerous.
It’s absurd that Pete Hegseth's nomination even made it to the floor of the U.S. Senate.
No position in the Cabinet carries the weight and the responsibility of Secretary of Defense.
But Pete Hegseth is one of the most unqualified and erratic nominees for a position we have ever seen in America.
Today, I'm voting no on Ratcliffe's nomination to the CIA.
But when I met with Ratcliffe, the answers I got about Gabbard were insufficient.
For John Ratcliffe as CIA Director, those are precisely the moments he'd have to hold firm and speak truth to power.
Tulsi Gabbard has a history of spreading false information and cheering America’s adversaries.
