Don Bacon (R-Neb.) suggested Monday that Pete Hegseth should be fired as secretary of defense, reportedly becoming the first GOP House member to advocate for his ouster. NPR wrote Monday that the White House was already searching for a replacement after it was reported that Hegseth again shared classified information with outsiders on an imminent military attack in Yemen.

A moderate who has criticized President Trump, Don Bacon is the first sitting GOP lawmaker to suggest Hegseth should be fired.
