McConnell's vote of conscience against Pete Hegseth, following decades of obstruction, was rendered meaningless after J.D. Vance broke the tie vote.

Mitch McConnell's last-minute rebellion forced JD Vance to return to the Senate and sets up a tense future as three Republicans defy Trump.

Pete Hegseth was confirmed as the new defense secretary, narrowly surviving a betrayal by Mitch McConnell and his two RINO renegades.

Three Republicans voted with every Democrat against Trump’s controversial pick to lead the Pentagon, forcing Vance to step in and put Hegseth over the top.

Vice President J.D. Vance was on hand to cast a tie-breaking vote, unusual in the Senate for Cabinet nominees, who typically win wider support.

Donald Trump’s Department of Defense nominee Pete Hegseth narrowly won Senate confirmation Friday night, in the face of damning charges of sexual abuse and alcohol-induced debauchery.

Senator Mitch McConnell used Vice President JD Vance's words to criticize President Trump's pardon of violent January 6 rioters.

Veteran and former Fox News host Pete Hegseth will be the next secretary of defense after the Senate confirmed him by the narrowest of margins.

Vance spars with Catholic bishops: Vice President J.D. Vance, who is Catholic, said in a Sunday interview with CBS that the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) has "not been a good partner in common-sense immigration enforcement."

In a harsh attack on Catholic bishops for criticizing mass deportation, the veep is intensifying his administration’s feud with Christian clergy.

The vote may have been too close for comfort for all the wrong reasons -- but, at the end of the day, Pete Hegseth will be our next head of the Pentagon, thanks to a tie breaking vote from Vice President J.

Pete Hegseth has vowed to bring his “warrior” ethos to the Pentagon. Democrats had assailed him as unfit for the job, and his confirmation came down to Vice President JD Vance serving as tiebreaker.
