On today's Top News in 10: Pete Hegseth, the former Fox News host and veterans advocate, spent more than four hours before the Senate Armed Services Committee at his confirmation hearing Tuesday. Ryan Walker of Heritage Action for America joins the show to discuss President-elect Donald Trump's pick for secretary of defense and Heritage Action's $1 million ad campaign to support the confirmation of Trump's nominees. Special counsel Jack Smith's final report asserts federal prosecutors lacked grounds to charge Trump with incitement for the Jan. 6, 2021, protests at the U.S. Capitol. The report also concludes the was not “direct evidence—such as an explicit admission or communication with co-conspirators—of Mr. Trump's subjective intent to cause the full scope of the violence that occurred.” The U.S. House is voting on the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act, which is expected to pass with Democrat votes. Rep. Greg Steube, R-Fla., sponsored the legislation, which prohibits any school that receives federal funding from allowing men to compete in women's sports. Additional headlines: The Biden administration is considering commuting the sentence of the convicted felon who stole and leaked incoming President Trump's tax records along with those of thousands of other taxpayers. Los Angeles resident James Breslo nearly lost his home in the Palisades Fire last week. Now he's speaking out and pinpointing the blame on the city's homeless population. Former first lady Michelle Obama won't attend the January 20 festivities in Washington, but her husband, Barack Obama, will be there with former Presidents George W. Bush and Bill Clinton.
