Jordan Klepper: 我是Jordan Clapper，今晚节目内容包括：国会、共和党人对特朗普内阁成员的审查，以及Pete Hegseth的鸡尾酒调制技巧。Pete Hegseth的参议院确认听证会充满了争议，他的背景存在诸多问题，包括性侵指控、几乎将退伍军人组织搞垮以及酗酒史。共和党参议员对Hegseth的质问过于温和，而民主党参议员Tim Kaine则对Hegseth的婚外情和缺乏判断力进行了严厉质问。Hegseth曾发表过关于女性参军的煽动性言论，但最终表示支持女性参军。Hegseth强调军队领导层应基于能力而非多元化和包容性政策。总的来说，Hegseth的确认听证会暴露了他个人品德和政策立场上的诸多问题。 Desi Lydic: 深入调查Hegseth的过去并不能阻止他的确认，与其浪费时间，不如不去理会。对特朗普政府官员进行深入调查是徒劳的，与其如此，不如选择自我保护。 Pete Hegseth: (根据听证会内容推断) Hegseth在听证会上为自己辩护，否认了一些指控，并试图解释自己的行为。他可能强调了自己的爱国主义和对国防的承诺，并试图淡化其个人生活中的负面事件。他可能还阐述了自己的政策立场，例如关于军队领导层和女性参军的观点。 Tim Kaine: (根据听证会内容推断) Kaine对Hegseth的个人行为和道德操守提出了尖锐的质疑，并要求Hegseth对自己的行为负责。他可能强调了Hegseth的所作所为对国家安全和公众信任的影响。 Markwayne Mullin: (根据听证会内容推断) Mullin可能试图为Hegseth辩护，并强调Hegseth的积极品质和对国家的贡献。他可能试图淡化Hegseth的个人缺点，并强调其在国防方面的专业知识。
