The tapes will show one way or the other what happened and whether Hegseth is telling the truth. If Secretary Hegseth has nothing to hide, he should not fear being truthful. In the meantime, Republicans in The House and Senate, including the chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, have promised, quote, vigorous oversight on these strikes. This is very encouraging and I thank them for working in a bipartisan way on this matter. But now Republicans in both chambers must follow through. We need congressional hearings. (07:31–07:42)
