Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's position appears secure amid ongoing Capitol Hill testimony, including a second day before the Senate Armed Services Committee on April 30, 2026, defending a proposed $1.5 trillion FY2027 defense budget and Iran war objectives. Recent high-profile firings, such as Army Chief of Staff Gen. Randy George in early April and Navy Secretary John Phelan on April 22, have sparked Democratic criticism and accusations of Pentagon turmoil, but no Republican Senate push for his removal or resignation signals has emerged. With the administration prioritizing military rebuilding during active conflict, traders' 83.5% implied probability on "No" reflects consensus that institutional inertia, GOP control, and national security demands outweigh controversies through June 30.
