WATCH: Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth's full remarks upon swearing in

“It’s not the first time the headline reads ‘Junior Enlisted Marine Bails Out Junior Army Officer,’” Hegseth joked, drawing a laugh from the audience and a visible chuckle from Vance.

“Sen. Markwayne Mullin was nice enough to take my kids up to the gallery to watch the actual moment the vice president sealed the deal,” Vance said, referring to the Oklahoma Republican.

“And they came running in and said, ‘Dad’ — instead of being sad about it being 51-50 — they said, ‘Dad, you won in overtime.’”

I’m glad he Hegseth was approved. I’m ashamed of our party for allowing McConnell, Murkowski, and Collins to hold their committee positions and not be censured.
