> Former Pentagon spokesman John Ullyot told Erin Burnett that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth would ultimately be impeached, despite House Republicans blocking an immediate vote. Ullyot criticized Hegseth’s conduct at a recent press conference, calling him a “Fox News fire breather” focused on himself rather than troops. CNN’s NewsNight panel also debated whether Hegseth’s standing in the Trump administration had changed after he survived Rep. Massie’s impeachment effort.
