#Punchbowl reporter #JakeSherman revealed.. #SenateRepublicans may have "buyer's remorse" after allowing #SecretaryOfDefense #PeteHegseth 2 sail through confirmation
Speaking to #MSNBC Wednesday, host #KatyTur noted "significant Republican" Sen. #RogerWicker of #Mississippi, chair of the #SenateArmedServicesCommittee, has indicated he's unhappy about what has been coined "#Signalgate"
Sen #RogerWicker, #Republican of MS & the chair of the #Senate panel which has #oversight of the #Pentagon, says that he & his Democratic counterpart will request an expedited investigation by the Dept of #Defense Office of Inspector General into the #Signal group chat. Wicker & Sen #JackReed, Democrat of RI & the top Dem on the cmte, are also seeking to hold classified briefings on the matter.
It’s unclear who will oversee the investigation because #Trump fired the IG at the Pentagon.

Republicans Take Stand Against Reported Trump Admin Plan https://www.byteseu.com/857578/ #DepartmentOfDefense #DonaldTrump #Europe #HPTopStories #MikeRogers #NATO #Pentagon #PeteHegseth #Republicans #RogerWicker #TrumpAdministration #U.S.Military #U.S.Politics
Most #Republicans stood up to applaud #Trump’s announcement that he would impose reciprocal #tariffs on April 2, but several remained seated, including Sens #LisaMurkowski (Alaska), #SusanCollins (Maine) & #RogerWicker (Mississippi).
I don’t care if they sit or stand. I want them to vote for the US interests & stop kowtowing to Trump.
The FBI’s report on Hegseth was made available only to the Chairman and the Ranking Member of the Armed Services Committee, not the rank-and-file Senators on the Committee. Ranking Member Reed asked that the report be made available to the entire committee, but the Republican Chairman, Roger Wicker, refused.
Sen. Roger Wicker (R-MS) is clearly an idiot.
"In his statement, Wicker said that the Biden administration 'spent nearly a week foolishly telegraphing U.S. intentions to our adversaries, giving them time to relocate and hide."
