Biden Pentagon nominee faces scrutiny over resurfaced tweet as nomination heads to final vote

An old tweet from President Biden’s nominee to be the number three at the Pentagon has resurfaced as the nomination process heads to the Senate floor.

As the Senate gears up to vote on Kahl’s nomination, however, an old tweet from 2018 has resurfaced where he downplayed news that Israel had nabbed Iran’s nuclear program archive before Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s press conference on the operation. Kahl also said the findings had a "vibe" similar to before the Iraq War. Tablet magazine first publicized the tweet in an article on Thursday.
