US News LIVE: ‘You’re a war criminal’: Protester Disrupts Pete Hegseth at US Senate Hearing | Iran
A heated moment erupted during a Senate hearing as US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth faced a protester accusing him of war crimes, briefly halting proceedings. Chairman Roger Wicker restored order as Hegseth defended the Pentagon’s 2027 budget, citing faster weapons production and stronger industry ties. He linked the strategy to Donald Trump’s doctrine of deterring Iran and boosting military readiness. Critics, however, warn of rising costs and escalation risks. The hearing underscores deep political divisions in Washington over defence spending and America’s global military role.
