Trump Consults on Hegseth’s Future as Lawmakers Push Impeachment
Republican officials in Washington, D. C. , questioned Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth’s handling of the Iran conflict and other defence actions after the party’s midterm setbacks, the Guardian reported. President Donald Trump had earlier consulted advisers about Hegseth’s future following the Republican losses, according to NDTV.
Representative Thomas Massie said he would reintroduce impeachment articles against Hegseth if the secretary remained in office, as reported by the HuffPost. CNN noted that Democrats, should they regain control of the House, planned to intensify investigations and could pursue impeachment. USA Today added that the House was set to consider an impeachment resolution targeting the Pentagon chief after the midterms.
