‘He Was Very Effective at Killing Schoolchildren’: Massie Reintroduces Articles of Impeachment Against Hegseth
Massie accuses the defense secretary of unauthorized wars and extrajudicial killings as Trump backs Hegseth and Republicans defend him.
- On Monday, Representative Thomas Massie filed 8 articles of impeachment against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, accusing him of bypassing Congress to authorize military operations in Iran and carrying out extrajudicial killings.
- Massie argues Hegseth violated the Constitution by launching unauthorized military operations, citing a February 28 strike on the Shajareh Tayyebeh Elementary School in Iran that killed at least 156 civilians, including 120 children.
- While President Donald Trump urged Republicans to "stand up for Pete" and labeled Massie a "total loser," Massie stressed the impeachment targets Hegseth's legal violations, not his job performance.
- The privileged resolution requires a House vote within two legislative days, and Massie predicted a "high probability" that Hegseth will not remain in office past December 31.
- Hegseth, who told reporters he is "not worried," scheduled a Tuesday press conference at the Pentagon to address the impeachment effort while Massie continues pressuring the administration.
