Pete Hegseth Faces House Impeachment Vote Over Iran War Authorization

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth faces a House impeachment vote after Rep. Thomas Massie introduced articles Monday, citing the unauthorized war in Iran. Massie accused Hegseth of acting contrary to his duties and subversive to constitutional government by launching and continuing the conflict without congressional approval. Hegseth dismissed the threat, while President Trump reaffirmed support. House rules require a floor vote within two legislative days. Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is a "hard yes," and with Democratic support, passage is possible, though Senate removal would need a two-thirds majority.
