Kentucky Congressman Challenges Pentagon Chief Over Iran War
Outgoing Republican Congressman Thomas Massie of Kentucky has introduced articles of impeachment against US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, challenging the Trump administration’s top Pentagon official over the US war against Iran. The move has gained support from House Democrats, with Rep. Hakeem Jeffries stating his intention to vote in favor of impeachment. The outcome remains uncertain, as it is unclear how many Republicans will break with the White House’s public messaging. This development was first reported by Al-Monitor.
