Welcome to Sarah Gonzalez unfiltered. Boy, it was an interesting day with our first round of confirmation hearings in the Senate.

And of course, we had Secretary of Defense nominee Pete Hegeseth, who just, honestly, he deserves an award for listening to so many squawking women all, like, happening at the same time and not even batting an eyelash.
