> Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth told Norah O’Donnell last month that the United States has “all the control in the world” over the outcome of the Iran war and touted “historic” devastation to Iran’s military capabilities. The interview also features a U.S. Air Force officer shot down in Iran in April who survived two days in the mountains before being rescued.
