A new report from the Wall Street Journal shows that Hegseth is starting to see elusive leakers in his nightmares.
“I’ll hook you up to a f**king polygraph!” Hegseth reportedly yelled at Grady, per two unnamed sources who spoke with the outlet.
Seems like this anti-leak crackdown is going well.
“The extraordinary thing is that lie detector tests are being threatened not to uncover potential anti-President Trump civil servants but to catch political appointees suspected of leaking classified or sensitive information,” a source in defense told the paper.
A source who spoke to Politico characterized the situation in Hegseth's inner circle as a "knife fight."
Sounds like it's generating more leaks than it's plugging.
