## Resource

Ken Harbaugh calls out Pete Hegseth's silence on American casualties in the Iran war, arguing the Pentagon is dodging accountability rather than protecting security. He talks with Army combat veteran Kris Goldsmith about what that silence costs military morale and the troops living with the consequences.
