Rep. Seth Moulton has emerged as one of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's strongest critics, declaring him "criminally incompetent" and warning of the peril his inexperience poses to national security. Moulton, who opposed Hegseth's nomination, condemns his actions, including efforts to remove transgender service members and controversial management of sensitive information. Recent incidents involving Hegseth's digital practices, such as sharing war plans with journalists, have further exacerbated concerns. Moulton insists that these failures contribute to empowering enemies of America, underscoring the gravity of Hegseth’s role and performance.
"The Signal debacle was a serious criminal breach in and of itself, but I think it's also a symptom of the more dangerous problem: that our national security is not being entrusted to serious or competent individuals."
"Hegseth had far surpassed my expectations for how criminally incompetent he could be... He is a major national security threat."
