Pete Hegseth, Donald Trump’s pick to become defense secretary, appears to be moving toward confirmation after a contentious Senate hearing on Tuesday. He was grilled over his alleged history of sexual misconduct, reports of frequent public drunkenness at work, financial mismanagement at veterans’ organizations he led, and statements he has made disparaging women, LGBTQ people and others in the military.
