Hegseth's confirmation hearing on Tuesday reveals intense scrutiny over his past allegations of sexual assault, alcohol abuse, and misuse of non-profit funds.
Despite his denial of accusations, Hegseth's history, including a 2017 sexual assault claim and heavy alcohol use, poses challenges for his Senate confirmation.
Some Senate Republicans express concerns over Hegseth's views on combat roles for women and the presence of gay troops, complicating his path to confirmation.
Pushed to defend himself, Hegseth wrote that attacks against him were part of a 'textbook manufactured media takedown' with no evidence.
