Senate Hearing: Elizabeth Warren Questions Mr. Tata on Military Loyalty and Political Neutrality

Published | Video Starts at 00:18

Our military is strong because each member pledges loyalty to the Constitution, not to a specific president or a political party. And in return, military service and promotion are not tied to a political party or personal loyalty. President Trump threatens [the military's] political neutrality. With no explanation, he has fired the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the Chief of Naval Operations. Secretary Hegseth has purged top military lawyers and called for removing, quote, woke generals. (00:18–00:22)
