Impeach Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth

Thomas Massie moved to force a House vote on impeaching Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. His resolution focuses largely on the war in Iran and also refers to Hegseth’s role in military actions in Yemen and Venezuela. Massie argued that Hegseth carried out unlawful orders and posed a threat to the Constitution.

Context: The report describes a post-election impeachment effort, not a broader or continuing position on military policy. The House vote and any Senate proceedings were uncertain at the time of the report.

In their own words

Massie said Hegseth “knowingly executed and implemented unlawful orders”
