The White House is seeking to replace US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth after reports that he shared sensitive information on an unsecured messaging platform. Hegseth sent details of a March attack on Yemen's Houthis to a message group that included his wife, brother, and personal lawyer. The White House denied the report, with Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt calling it 'total FAKE NEWS.' President Donald Trump expressed support for Hegseth, saying he was 'doing a great job.' However, at least nine US Senate Democrats have called for Hegseth's resignation.
