From MSNBC.

WSJ’s Alex Ward joined #MorningJoe to discuss his latest reporting on the chaos inside Hegseth’s Pentagon — breaking down what he says is a tense and unraveling situation—describing polygraph threats, leaks and a “bare bones” staff that may be making things worse.
“Hegseth is truly anxious and concerned for the future of his job, as much as President Trump and the team around him says Hegseth is safe… he seems to believe that he needs to basically fight, not only in the public domain but within his own Pentagon in order to stay in charge, and that includes threatening even top military advisors to take polygraph tests.”
