Trump's firm endorsement of Pete Hegseth as Secretary of Defense nominee, coupled with Republican Senate control, underpins the 76.5% "No" odds on his removal by June 30, reflecting trader confidence in confirmation success. Recent Senate meetings, including positive feedback from allies like Sen. Tom Cotton, have eased concerns over past allegations of misconduct and workplace issues at Fox News, which Hegseth denies. GOP leaders prioritize Trump's agenda on military readiness reforms over personal vetting hurdles, though moderate senators like Susan Collins remain cautious. Confirmation hearings, expected imminently, represent the key near-term catalyst, with historical precedent favoring nominees amid unified party support.
