Pete Hegseth to address Pentagon at 8 AM Tuesday amid impeachment threat

independent.co.uk —

Pete Hegseth will hold a live news conference from the Pentagon at 8:00 AM Eastern on Tuesday, November 10, his first such briefing since May, amid an impeachment threat filed by Republican Rep. Thomas Massie. The briefing follows a resolution alleging "high crimes and misdemeanors" over Hegseth's handling of the Iran conflict and other operations, coming after sweeping Republican midterm losses tied to the war's economic fallout. Donald Trump and Pentagon officials have backed Hegseth, who calls the impeachment effort politically motivated and vows to remain in office through the end of his term.
