Wednesday on the News Hour, the Pentagon’s watchdog finds Pete Hegseth’s infamous Signal chat put U.S. personnel at risk. As immigration crackdowns begin in new cities, we explore the expanded role Border Patrol agents are playing, far beyond the U.S.-Mexico border. Plus, Congress returns to Washington as Republicans confront issues that expose rifts within the party, including the Epstein files.
