Pete Hegseth Defends $87 Bn Iran War Fund Plea as Senate Hearing Erupts In Anger | Firstpost America
The cost of the US-Iran conflict is becoming a major political flashpoint in Washington, D.C. Secretary Of War Pete Hegseth appeared before a Senate committee to defend billions of dollars in additional military funding, saying the conflict has already cost the United States $37.5 billion and warning that the Pentagon needs roughly $87.6 billion more to sustain operations and modernise military capabilities. The hearing quickly turned confrontational as protesters interrupted proceedings and Democratic lawmakers accused the Trump administration of lacking a long-term strategy. Hegseth rejected those claims, defending the military campaign and arguing that continued funding is essential for US national security.
