Pete Hegseth has been accused of leaving himself open to hacking by America’s enemies by using his personal phone number in a top security Signal chat that was easily accessible on numerous internet sites and apps.

Joe Kasper, Hegseth's former chief of staff, is the latest Department of Defense official rumored to be leaving.

The defense secretary insists the reports of aides talking about their bowel movements and firings over alleged leaks are all part of his plan to shake up the department.
