Megyn Kelly is joined by Pete Hegseth, President-Elect Trump's Secretary of Defense nominee, for an exclusive interview about what Trump told him this morning, why he's speaking out and fighting the false media narratives now, whether he thinks this is another "Brett Kavanaugh" situation, the importance of him "finding my two Js," the accusation of rape, what really happened, the settlement he reached with the accuser, how the media spins allegations and leaves out exonerating details, finding Jesus as his savior and changing his life, reports about excessive drinking, the allegations of his actions in a strip club, the accusations of financial mismanagement at veteran organizations, his actual record when it comes to helping vets, the emotion he feels seeing his former Fox colleagues defend him, the smears against him and whether it makes others reluctant to serve their country, why he'll continue fighting to stay as the nominee and welcomes an FBI background check, what he'd do on day one to reform the military, the email that was made public from his mom, the important role she has played in his life, and more.
