Meet the Military Vets Arrested for Disrupting Pete Hegseth's Senate Confirmation Hearing

Support our work: https://democracynow.org/donate/sm-desc-yt The Senate confirmation hearing for Pete Hegseth, Donald Trump's pick to be defense secretary, was repeatedly disrupted Tuesday by protesters who denounced the nominee's history of hateful remarks against women, LGBTQ people and others, as well as to demand an end to U.S. support for Israel's genocide in Gaza. We speak with two of those protesters, military veterans Josephine Guilbeau and Greg Stoker, who say they were motivated to speak out against the "war machine" that hurts people who serve in the military as well as people around the world who are victims of U.S. militarism. "They use us as pawns to go to these wars and ultimately go kill innocent people," says Guilbeau.
