Pentagon Pete Cornered on When Trump Folded on Iran

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was challenged over why the president is no longer demanding unconditional surrender from Iran as the conflict in the Middle East remains at a stalemate.

The president launched the war with messages of hope for the Iranian people and calls for them to take back the country from the regime, but as the war has gone on, the president has shifted his stance and is struggling to make a peace deal.

The defense secretary was questioned over the president’s yielding demands on Tuesday during his press briefing at the Pentagon.
