Contributing sentiments towards policy:

59% : The Department of Defense did not immediately respond to the Daily Beast's request for comment.
45% : Given his record of holding prior Cabinet leaders accountable, many in the secretary's own inner circle will applaud quietly if Trump chooses to do the same in short order at the top of the Defense Department," he concluded.
44% : As Trump reportedly put it: "What the f--- is Elon doing there?" It was also revealed that Hegseth's wife, Jennifer, was invited to attend sensitive meetings with foreign officials.
35% : " "One reason the American people gave Trump a conclusive victory last November is that he's not a go-along, get-along creature of the Beltway like many of his recent predecessors," Ullyot continued.
17% : In a bombshell op-ed for Politico on Sunday, John Ullyot, who has served in several communications roles across President Donald Trump's two terms and resigned from the Pentagon last week, ripped into Hegseth's embarrassing blunders and claimed many in his "own inner circle" would "applaud quietly" should Trump oust him from his post.
