At front next, breaking news, the defense secretary hitting the campaign trail in the middle of a war.

Hegstaff doing Trump's bidding to take down a fellow Republican as Trump creates a $1.8 billion slush fund.

Plus, breaking news of deadly shooting at the largest mosque in San Diego, Three killed, two teenage suspects, also dead.

As we're learning, hate speech was scrawled on one of the weapons from police, and we're

expecting a live press conference in just a couple moments here that we will bring you live.

And running for cover are Nick Peyton Walsh on the ground in Ukraine, literally dodging

the Russian drones on the front lines there,

as Ukrainian forces are making major gains in this war. Let's go out front.

And good evening. I'm Aaron Burnett on this Monday. And out front tonight, the defense

secretary hits the campaign trail. On day 80 of Trump's war with Iran, Pete Hegseth

spent his day campaigning for a candidate in Kentucky. Hegsett says he was acting in his personal

capacity, not as the defense chief, but of course, that is an absurd statement from a sitting

defense secretary in any scenario, including in the midst of a war. And Heggseth went to slam a fellow

Republican that Trump is trying to defeat Congressman Thomas Massey on the eve of this crucial

primary. At some point, constant obstruction is not leadership. It's just commentary. It's

obstruction. Thomas Massey has acted like his job is to stand

apart from the movement that President Trump leads instead of strengthening it. When President Trump

needs backup, Massey wants to debate process. You can send a warrior or you can send an obstructionist.

He needs to bolster our ranks, not obstructionism.

He has enough obstruction from Democrats.

Obviously, all political and us and our and all those things, again, sitting Defense

Secretary during a war.
