Republican Lawmaker Takes Aim at Defense Secretary Over Iran War
Rep. Thomas Massie is forcing a House vote to impeach Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth over his role in the Iran war and other conflicts. Massie’s eight impeachment articles accuse Hegseth of abusing his powers, and the measure’s success is uncertain while Republicans still control the lower chamber. The effort sets the stage for a potentially contentious fight between Massie and Hegseth’s allies on Capitol Hill. The story was first reported by The Hill.
