Senator Richard Blumenthal highlighted the 'significant gaps and inadequacies' in the FBI's background check process, including failing to interview key witnesses regarding potential misconduct.
Despite reaching out to Samantha Hegseth for information, the FBI investigators reportedly did not follow up adequately, leaving her multiple unanswered calls.
Senator Tammy Duckworth expressed concern, stating that some witnesses wished to talk to the FBI but had not been contacted during the investigation.
The influence of the Trump transition team over the FBI's investigation raises significant questions regarding the directives given for Hegseth's vetting process.
