Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth received a sharp phone call from the White House over his wide use of polygraphs at the Pentagon which infuriated one official with close ties to Donald Trump advisor Stephen Miller.

The White House was forced to intervene to put an end to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s routine use of polygraph tests on his own staff. According to The Washington Post, a top aide to the Defense chief complained to the White House that he could be subject to a lie detector as Hegseth’s campaign to stamp out the endless Pentagon media leaks raged.
