Senate questions retired general over anti-Islamic posts amid defense role nomination.

Retired Brigadier General Anthony Tata, nominated to be the Defense Department's undersecretary for personnel, faced Senate scrutiny over past anti-Islamic social media posts and comments labeling former President Barack Obama a "terrorist leader." Tata apologized for these remarks and emphasized his leadership experience. If confirmed, he would oversee military personnel and potentially support planned cuts to general officer positions and diversity programs.
