Rep. Massie files impeachment articles against Defense Secretary Hegseth

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Representative Thomas Massie has introduced articles of impeachment against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, citing Hegseth's handling of the Iran war and other alleged misconduct. Massie claims Hegseth has acted in a manner grossly incompatible with his duties and the rule of law, specifically by implementing unlawful orders to initiate war without congressional approval. Hegseth has dismissed the impeachment effort as politically motivated noise, and the Department of Defense has not yet commented. The resolution's success is uncertain, as removal would require a two-thirds vote in the Senate. AI
