Hakeem Jeffries backs Hegseth impeachment over Iran war and abuse of power

news.liga.net (Ukrainian) —

House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries endorsed impeachment of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, citing abuse of power and the Iran war. He stated Hegseth must resign. Jeffries said he "strongly" supports the impeachment resolution Republican Thomas Massie plans to introduce next week. He accused Hegseth of undermining national security and provoking a reckless, costly war with Iran that raised prices. Democrats won majorities in both congressional chambers in the November 3 midterm elections. Vice President Vance previously called the Iran war the main reason for Republican losses. Jeffries will discuss the resolution with colleagues on November 10.
