White House "holds" Defense and foreign policy officials accountable

The Trump administration denies rumors about the replacement of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Secretary of State Marco Rubio amid pressures following the Republican Party's electoral losses. The administration faces scrutiny over its foreign policy, particularly regarding Iran and international tariffs, which are seen as contributing to inflation. Hegseth defended his position against calls for his impeachment, asserting the effectiveness of their policies. Rubio, meanwhile, dismissed speculation about leaving his role, expressing commitment to serve until the end of the term. Despite Trump's acknowledgment of pressures to change leadership, he intends to keep Hegseth in his position, praising his performance.
