Senate confirmation hearings for Trump’s nominees begin Tuesday, when the Senate Armed Services Committee considers Pete Hegseth, the Fox News host tapped by Trump to become defense secretary. Hegseth will likely face questions over accusations that he raped a woman in 2017 at a Republican women’s conference in Monterey, California. Hegseth claimed the encounter was consensual, but he later paid the woman as part of a nondisclosure agreement. Hegseth’s own mother has called him “an abuser of women.”

Also on Tuesday, confirmation hearings will be held for interior secretary nominee Doug Burgum and veterans affairs secretary nominee Doug Collins.
