Massie Files Impeachment Articles Against Defense Secretary Hegseth
A congressman said Massie had introduced the articles months earlier and was now seeking a vote.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth faces an impeachment resolution accusing him of high crimes and misdemeanors, including launching war against Iran without congressional approval. The articles also allege that strikes on suspected drug-smuggling boats in the Caribbean killed hundreds of civilians.
