"They haven't yet reached a conclusion, but they certainly haven't reached a conclusion that no classified information is shared. Am I wrong about that?" Kaine said of the investigations.
"I shouldn't and can't comment on ongoing investigations," Waltz said. "What I can do is echo Secretary Hegseth’s testimony that no names, targets, locations, units, route, sources, methods, no classified information."
"I got it. I'm sure Secretary Hegseth says he didn't share any classified information," Kaine said. "But the fact of the matter is there are two investigations going on at the Pentagon precisely to determine, in an objective and independent way, whether classified information was shared and, a minimum, sharing attack plans with sensitive military information that shouldn't have been shared."
