March 15 Hegseth (11:44 am ET): Just got back from a burger run, gents. Hope everyone’s hungry for a little justice served up American style. 🍔

Hegseth (12:01 pm ET): All in good time, Vance. Save your words for the word doc, okay?
Rubio (12:14 pm ET): Steady, gentlemen. Let’s focus on the matter at hand.
Gabbard (12:16 pm ET): Agreed. Though, I did hear Putin makes a mean beef stroganoff. 😋
Waltz (12:20 pm ET): Let’s keep our comments to the current situation, please.

Miller (13:28 pm ET): Integrity is overrated.
Vance (13:31 pm ET): Agreed. Well said, Waltz.
Rubio (13:34 pm ET): Let’s think about this some more. We can reconvene tomorrow with some fresh ideas.
Hegseth (13:38 pm ET): Sounds like a good idea. Though I might need another burger run…
