Welcome in Tuesday edition Clay Travis Buck Sexton show.

Appreciate all of you hanging out with us as we are often running here on today's program.

As you are likely aware, Pete Hegseth, Trump's nominee to be Defense Secretary has been in front of the Senate for a one of the subcommittee of the Senate for his

0:24.3

hearing as the Senate advises and consents on the Trump cabinet nominees that process officially
