The U.S. Congress Has Launched Impeachment Proceedings Against Pentagon Chief Pete Hegset

The vote could take place as early as this week.

A proposal to remove Secretary of War Pete Hegset has been submitted to the U.S. Congress, according to ABC News.

The motion was introduced by Republican Representative Thomas Massie. A vote could take place as early as this week. Removing Hegset from office would require a two-thirds majority in the Senate—the upper chamber of the U.S. Congress.

The motion introduced by Massie focuses primarily on the war against Iran, but also addresses Hegset’s role in military operations in Yemen and Venezuela.

“Some of my colleagues claim that Defense Secretary Hegset has been effective and that they support this war, so they intend to vote against the impeachment proceedings. But that’s not the point at all. The question is whether he has committed acts that warrant removal—and the answer is yes, eight times,” Massie wrote on social media platform X.

Previously, Hegset had spoken out in defense of the military actions taken by the administration of President Donald Trump in Iran, Venezuela, and Yemen. According to him, those who question these actions thereby “call into question the soldiers themselves and their historic achievements.”
