Veterans call Minister Hegseth to account: 'He is a war criminal'
A group of veterans is demanding accountability from U.S. Secretary Hegseth, accusing him of war crimes related to military actions in Iran and Venezuela. Despite a failed impeachment attempt, veterans like Alice Mascitti express disappointment and concern over constitutional violations. During Veterans Day, protests highlighted their discontent, with slogans calling for Hegseth's impeachment. Hegseth defended himself, claiming the impeachment efforts attack all military personnel. Meanwhile, President Trump praised Hegseth and announced plans for a controversial triumphal arch to honor veterans, which has faced criticism for obstructing views at Arlington Cemetery. Veterans hope for a more supportive Congress in January to address their concerns.
