There is growing support for President-elect Trump’s pick to head the Pentagon. Pete Hegseth has spent the week on Capitol Hill, meeting with lawmakers. Senator John Cornyn is a fan.

The Texas Republican says they spoke about focusing less on “woke” policies and more on war fighting. Senator Cornyn also met this week with Trump’s pick for the FBI, saying he supports Kash Patel.
