One Republican senator, Susan Collins of Maine, says she’s still deciding whether she will support Secretary of Defense pick Pete Hegseth’s confirmation.
Hegseth has become one of Trump’s most controversial choices, having faced allegations of sexual assault. He has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing.

Senator Richard Blumenthal, a Democrat from Connecticut, raised concerns over whether Trump’s nominees will stand up to the president if he asks them to do something unconstitutional.

When asked if there are any other nominees Blumenthal is planning to support, he responded: “I’m not sure yet.”
