Hegseth dismisses impeachment resolution as political spectacle

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth denounced Rep. Thomas Massie's impeachment resolution as a political spectacle on 10 November, and House leaders said the measure was unlikely to pass. The comments came as the House prepared for a vote on the articles. The impeachment drive began on 2 November when Republican Rep.

Thomas Massie filed an eight-article resolution accusing Hegseth of violating the War Powers Resolution and other statutes in connection with operations in Iran, Venezuela and Yemen. Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries publicly pledged a “hard yes” to impeaching Hegseth and said he would vote for the resolution. Subsequent reports noted that the articles could be considered by the House within days.
