Trump & Hegseth won't let go of worshipping the false gods of slavery, insurrection & treason, bringing back glorification of Confederate traitors.
They're making themselves subjects to the Fourteenth Amendment's Section 3 again.
Congress needs to act.

The Enemy That Hegseth and Trump Insist on Honoring
The U.S. won the Civil War. So why is the administration so keen on the Confederate side?
The AtlanticA tattoo on Hegseth's right forearm purportedly reads "We the People" in Gothic letters.
For me it's also conceivable the tattoo is not made up of three words, but only two: "Weiße People", "Weiße" rather being German for "White" => thus making a supremacist call to "White People".
