国防部长皮特·黑格斯塞斯将在参议院听证会发表伊朗战争爆发以来首次公开证词，这场听证会将暴露参议院两党之间的分歧。
周四上午举行的参议院军事委员会听证会原本旨在讨论五角大楼下一财年高达1.5万亿美元的巨额预算申请。但外界预计，这场听证会将演变为围绕这场战争以及本届政府作战目标的公开交锋。
委员会主席、密西西比州共和党参议员罗杰·威克以及委员会内的共和党议员预计将向黑格斯塞斯和参谋长联席会议主席丹·“雷曾”·凯恩上将施压，要求将这笔巨额预算转向国内，重建美国本土军事制造业。

“正如我们之前的几代人一样，我们如今正在国内重振制造业，重建美国军火库，”威克在一份声明中表示。“通过再工业化和对新技术的投资，我们正在全美各地创造就业岗位。这项至关重要的工作支撑着我们的军事和民用劳动力。”
但听证会的大部分内容可能会被“史诗之怒行动”占据，该行动将于周四进入第59天。这场战争及其成本和时间线，是前一天众议院听证会的焦点议题。
蒙大拿州共和党参议员蒂姆·希伊告诉福克斯新闻数字频道，此次听证会将是一个很好的机会，可以公开了解冲突的进展情况，以及霍尔木兹海峡的封锁“不仅在伊朗国内，而且在全球石油市场产生了怎样的影响，以及两者之间的互动情况”。
当被问及是否期望民主党同僚在听证会上保持冷静时，希伊表示：“我希望如此，但希望不是事实。”

黑格斯塞斯此次出席参议院听证会之际，《战争权力决议法案》规定的60天期限将于周五到期，同时参议院民主党人已推动就终止伊朗战争的决议进行每周投票。共和党人多次与总统立场一致，但这并未阻止民主党施加压力。
委员会内的参议院民主党人希望共和党同僚向黑格斯塞斯提出尖锐问题，特别是在伊朗战争以及国会已批准但迄今尚未拨付的4亿美元乌克兰援助资金方面。
康涅狄格州民主党参议员理查德·布卢门撒尔告诉福克斯新闻数字频道，他认为共和党人也对伊朗战争的成本抱有同样担忧。

“我认为，他们对本届政府未能更透明地披露信息感到失望，”布卢门撒尔表示。“我也曾在机密场合和公开听证会上提出过这些问题，你知道的，他们说他们和我有同样的担忧。现在，我不知道这些会不会在这次听证会上被摆上台面。”
这场中东冲突的成本，是在黑格斯塞斯和凯恩周三出席众议院军事委员会预算听证会时披露的。
五角大楼代理主计长朱尔斯·赫斯特告诉华盛顿州民主党众议员亚当·史密斯，截至目前，“史诗之怒行动”已耗资纳税人250亿美元，“其中大部分用于弹药”。
“我们将通过白宫制定一项追加拨款申请，提交国会，”赫斯特说。“前提是我们完成对战争成本的全面评估。”
但有些人并不认为这个数字是战争的真实成本。
“在我看来这个数字偏低，但我需要完整了解整场听证会的情况，才能决定明天要提出什么问题，”弗吉尼亚州民主党参议员蒂姆·凯恩告诉福克斯新闻数字频道。

Hegseth testifies at Senate as Iran war’s $25B price tag and 60-day war powers deadline loom

Democrats plan to press on Iran war costs and $400M in undistributed Ukraine funding as partisan tensions rise

War Secretary Hegseth asks House Democrats: ‘Who are you cheering for?’
War Secretary Pete Hegseth rebuked Democrats on the House Armed Services Committee in a hearing Wednesday on the 2027 $1.5 trillion Pentagon budget proposal for calling the war on Iran “a quagmire.”

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth will give his first public testimony in the Senate since the start of the Iran war in a hearing that will expose the divide across the aisle in the upper chamber.
The hearing before the Senate Armed Services Committee on Thursday morning is meant to discuss the Pentagon’s staggering $1.5 trillion budget request for the upcoming fiscal year. Instead, it is expected to become a public back-and-forth on the war and the administration’s objectives.
Sen. Roger Wicker, R-Miss., who chairs the committee, and Republicans on the panel are expected to push Hegseth and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Dan “Raizin” Caine on turning that colossal budget request inward to rebuild military manufacturing stateside.
AFTER THIRD ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT, DEBATE GROWS OVER WHETHER TRUMP ATTACK WARRANTS ANOTHER INVESTIGATION

“Like the generations that came before us, we are now revitalizing manufacturing right here at home to rebuild the American arsenal,” Wicker said in a statement. “By reindustrializing and investing in new technology, we are creating jobs across our homeland. This is critical work that supports our military and civilian workforce.”
But much of the hearing will likely be dominated by Operation Epic Fury, which will have entered its 59th day on Thursday. The war, along with its cost and timelines, was a focal point at the House’s hearing the day before.
Sen. Tim Sheehy, R-Mont., told Fox News Digital that the hearing would be a good opportunity to get a public update on how the conflict is progressing, and how the blockade in the Strait of Hormuz “is being realized, not just inside Iran, but global oil markets, and how they’ve interacted.”
When asked if he expected his Democratic colleagues to maintain composure during the hearing, Sheehy said, “I hope so, but hope don’t float.”

Hegseth’s appearance before the panel comes as the 60-day deadline under the War Powers Resolution Act will arrive on Friday, and as Senate Democrats have forced weekly votes on resolutions to terminate hostilities in Iran. Time and again, Republicans have sided with the president, but that hasn’t stopped Democrats from exerting pressure.
Senate Democrats on the panel hope their Republican colleagues will ask hard questions of Hegseth, particularly on Iran and the $400 million in congressionally-approved funding for Ukraine that so far hasn’t been distributed.
Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., told Fox News Digital that he believes Republicans share the same concern about the cost of the Iran war.

“They’ve been disappointed, I believe, in the administration’s failure to be more forthcoming,” Blumenthal said. “I’ve asked these questions in classified settings as well in open hearings, and, you know, they said they share my concern. Now, I don’t know whether that will come out here.”
The cost of the conflict in the Middle East so far was revealed during Hegseth and Caine’s appearance before the House Armed Services Committee’s own budget hearing on Wednesday.
The Pentagon’s acting comptroller, Jules Hurst, told Rep. Adam Smith, D-Wash., that to date, Operation Epic Fury had cost taxpayers $25 billion, and that “most of that is in munitions.”

“We will formulate a supplemental through the White House that will come to Congress,” Hurst said. “Once we have a full assessment of the cost of the conflict.”
But some aren’t buying that figure as the real cost of the war.
“Sounds low to me, but I need to get briefed on the whole hearing as I decide what I’m going to ask tomorrow,” Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va., told Fox News Digital.
