The US Senate just made a big call on President Donald Trump’s pick for Defense Secretary—and it was close. Pete Hegseth squeaked by with a nail-biting approval on Friday, but only because Vice President JD Vance stepped in to break the tie. Talk about drama!

The vote went mostly as you’d expect, with 50 Republicans backing Hegseth. However, concerns about his past behavior and qualifications stirred up enough controversy to split the GOP. Three Republicans—Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, and Susan Collins of Maine—joined all 47 Democrats in voting against him. That’s some rare bipartisan action these days.

If you’re curious about how your senator weighed in on the decision, you can check out the full breakdown in the table below. The numbers don’t lie—this was one tight vote!

So, what does this mean moving forward? With Hegseth now confirmed, all eyes will be on how he shapes defense policy under the Trump administration. Stay tuned—there’s sure to be more to this story.
