US House Refers Impeachment Articles Against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to Committee
US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth faces impeachment proceedings initiated by Republican Congressman Thomas Massie, who accuses him of waging war against Iran without congressional approval and abusing his powers. Hegseth denies wrongdoing, calling the effort a political spectacle and defending the military actions as lawful and necessary. President Donald Trump strongly supports Hegseth, praising his leadership and criticizing Massie. The Republican-controlled House voted 211-204 to refer the impeachment articles to committee, effectively blocking the effort, though Democrats may revisit it after gaining control in January.
