Chaos erupts at Pete Hegseth confirmation hearing

WATCH: President-elect Trump's pick for Defense Secretary, Pete Hegseth was interrupted by a heckler who had to be removed by security during his confirmation hearing with the Senate Armed Services Committee.

The hearing for the former "TREND NEWS 24" weekend host and Army National Guard combat veteran comes after weeks of meetings during which some senators have questioned his fitness for the role, amid allegations of excessive drinking and sexual misconduct.
