WSJ: Polygraph Threats, Leaks and Infighting: The Chaos Inside Hegseth’s Pentagon. Defense secretary has chastised top military officers and staffers as he seeks to quiet a storm he helped create. Defense Secretary Hegseth is under investigation for mishandling classified information and has accused multiple people of leaking a classified briefing to Elon Musk, including threatening them with polygraphs. Trump is standing by Hegseth but has begun to ask others about his performance as defense chief. That classified briefing for Musk on China, infuriated President and raised alarms inside the Pentagon given Musk’s business ties to Beijing.
“I’ll hook you up to a f—ing polygraph!” Hegseth shouted at Admiral Christopher Grady, the then-acting Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. He would go on to accuse a number of other people for the leak, including Lt. Gen. Doug Sims, the Joint Staff director, who Hegseth also threatened with a polygraph test. Coming just days after revelations that the former Fox News host had shared sensitive military information in unsecured group chats on Signal, the leaks deepened his frustrations. Problems only snowballed from there. At least five appointees have been fired or resigned, and Hegseth has said he is referring some of the aides for criminal investigation. Meanwhile, he is under investigation by the Pentagon’s inspector general for the alleged mishandling of classified information.
