Donald Trump’s war cabinet is under growing strain as Iran’s battlefield moves collide with brutal power plays in Washington. As Tehran continues to hit U.S. air power, questions are mounting over whether Mojtaba’s war is quietly sealing U.S. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth’s fate. With U.S. jets downed, casualties rising, and a string of high-profile firings already shaking the administration, Hegseth now faces an escalating fight for his own political survival in D.C. Reports suggest his clashes with Army Secretary Dan Driscoll, the forced exit of top generals, and the lingering shadow of “Signalgate” have all combined into a serious credibility crisis at the Pentagon. As Trump reshapes his wartime cabinet, the stakes around Hegseth’s future—and America’s war direction—have never been higher.
