🚨 This Was The Most Revealing Exchange In Hegseth’s 60 Minutes Interview.
Pete Hegseth defended the new Iran agreement by saying the document guarantees Iran will never have a nuclear weapon, never seek one, and never obtain one.
Then came Brennan’s response:
The Obama-era JCPOA said that too.
Notice what happened next.
Hegseth didn’t argue that Brennan was wrong.
He didn’t say the provision was new.
Instead, he argued the difference was that this agreement was negotiated “from a position of strength.”
Not whether Iran promised not to build a nuclear weapon.
Both sides appear to agree similar language existed before.
The disagreement is whether military pressure and leverage make this agreement more durable than the one Trump withdrew from.
