據(jù)美國(guó)哥倫比亞廣播公司(CBS)、《國(guó)會(huì)山報(bào)》23日?qǐng)?bào)道,美國(guó)國(guó)防部長(zhǎng)赫格塞思近日要求將五角大樓一間休息室整修成了化妝室,供高級(jí)官員在出鏡前做準(zhǔn)備。一些民主黨人火速在社交平臺(tái)X上發(fā)文諷刺抨擊赫格塞思這一舉動(dòng)。

US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth recently ordered modifications to a room next to the Pentagon press briefing room to retrofit it with a makeup studio that can be used to prepare for television appearances, multiple sources told CBS News.

《國(guó)會(huì)山報(bào)》稱(chēng),五角大樓發(fā)言人證實(shí)了這一消息,但稱(chēng)“休息室主要更換了部分家具,包括一把導(dǎo)演椅、一面化妝鏡和一盞補(bǔ)光燈,所有物品均來(lái)自現(xiàn)有庫(kù)存”,“涉及臺(tái)面由華盛頓總部服務(wù)處設(shè)施服務(wù)局內(nèi)部加裝建造?!?/p>

"Most of the changes in the Green Room were furniture modifications — a director's style chair, mirror, and a makeup light — all of which were added from existing inventories," a Defense Department spokesperson told The Hill.

《國(guó)會(huì)山報(bào)》提到,CBS稱(chēng)此番翻新耗資數(shù)千美元,但五角大樓在X上對(duì)此予以否認(rèn)。美國(guó)防部官員們說(shuō),他們?cè)趯?duì)空間進(jìn)行改造時(shí)秉持了節(jié)儉原則。

“在此次升級(jí)改造過(guò)程中,我們刻意選擇保守路線,選用成本較低、有現(xiàn)成材料的解決方案,旨在為部長(zhǎng)和其他要員提供所需支持和空間,以便他們?cè)阽R頭前進(jìn)行新聞發(fā)布相關(guān)活動(dòng)。”上述發(fā)言人補(bǔ)充說(shuō)。

CBS News reported that the refurbishment cost several thousand dollars, which the Pentagon denied in a post on the social platform X. Officials said they were modest when making the changes to the space. "For this upgrade we were deliberately conservative and opted for several less expensive, on-hand material solutions that provide the Secretary and other VIPs the needed support and space for on-camera press engagements," the spokesperson added.

報(bào)道提到,這一消息曝光后,部分民主黨人迅速在X平臺(tái)上發(fā)帖諷刺赫格塞思。

亞利桑那州聯(lián)邦參議員發(fā)了張施瓦辛格在電影《鐵血戰(zhàn)士》中涂抹黑色迷彩的動(dòng)圖,并配文稱(chēng),“這才是我們國(guó)防部長(zhǎng)唯一該化的妝?!?/p>

參議院少數(shù)黨領(lǐng)袖查克·舒默則抨擊稱(chēng),“有消息說(shuō),他在五角大樓最?lèi)?ài)用的化妝品是遮瑕膏和遮蓋霜?!?/p>

還有民主黨眾議員表示,“赫格塞思一再使用私人電話(huà)泄露正在進(jìn)行的軍事行動(dòng),這是玩忽職守,現(xiàn)在又在浪費(fèi)納稅人的錢(qián)。在五角大樓搞化妝室對(duì)軍隊(duì)有什么幫助?他應(yīng)該辭職?!?/p>

此次改造計(jì)劃曝光之際,赫格塞思正陷入“信號(hào)門(mén)2.0”。多家外媒4月20日曝光其所涉另一樁“信號(hào)門(mén)”事件,指認(rèn)他除在一名記者“誤入”的美國(guó)國(guó)家安全高官群聊中分享打擊也門(mén)胡塞武裝方案外,還在一私人群聊中幾乎同步分享了相同信息。群聊中有他的妻子、弟弟和私人律師。部分民主黨人要求其引咎辭職,但特朗普核心圈層仍在支持赫格塞思。

The modifications to the space come as Hegseth has found himself at the center of another scandal regarding the use of Signal to share attack plans. He was first criticized last month for sharing sensitive information via the encrypted app when a journalist was inadvertently added to a group chat with top Trump officials. Some Democrats have called on him to resign, but those in President Trump's orbit have largely held steady in their support for the former morning show host.
