The Pentagon's Bluster Meets Reality on the Ground in Iran Republican Senator Thom Tillis has been a vocal critic of President Donald Trump's policies, and his latest broadside against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth takes aim at the administration's handling of the war with Iran.
Tillis's scathing assessment, delivered on CNN's State of the Union, accused Hegseth of making South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem look like a "5 star recruit" by comparison.
Tillis's criticism is significant because he voted to confirm both Hegseth and Noem last year.
