Rep. Don Bacon (R-Neb.) on Monday stopped just short of calling on Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth to be removed following a new report that alleges the secretary shared detailed military plans in a group chat that included his wife, brother and personal lawyer.
“If it’s true that he had another [Signal] chat with his family, about the missions against the Houthis, it’s totally unacceptable,” Bacon told Politico, adding, “I’m not in the White House, and I’m not going to tell the White House how to manage this … but I find it unacceptable, and I wouldn’t tolerate it if I was in charge.”
Bacon’s remarks come after The New York Times reported on a previously undisclosed Signal group chat, in which Hegseth allegedly shared detailed information about forthcoming military strikes in Yemen on March 15.
