Want to get more on Secretary Hagel's now from Elizabeth Schulze.
Elizabeth, we reported yesterday this report that
Secretary Hagel may have tried to invest in defense stocks before the war began.
Investigations of that now. Yeah, good morning George.
Democratic lawmakers are now launching an investigation after that explosive report from the Financial Times.
It claimed a broker for Defense Secretary Pete Hagel tried to make a multi-million dollar investment into a fund with defense stocks weeks before the Iran war.
So top
Democrat on the House Oversight Committee writing in a letter to Hagel attempting to profit from a war you helped engineer using insider information
information is shocking and outrageous.
A spokesman for Hagel says the article is entirely false and fabricated and is demanding a retraction from the paper.
The House Committee also sent letters to BlackRock and Morgan Stanley seeking more information.
Both companies declined to comment.
The SEC, which would typically investigate insider trading, also not commenting here.
So Hagel's latest financial disclosures show no major investment in defense stocks.
He did sell shares of big companies including Walmart, Apple, and Costco about one week before President Trump announced his sweeping tariffs last year, Robin.
All right, Elizabeth.
