Hegseth impeachment efforts now underway

The effort to impeach Pentagon Chief Pete Hegseth, it's now underway. The House is expected to vote on a measure this week that could trigger a trial in the Senate. As Doug Luzader reports from Washington this morning, Hegseth and the president are fighting back. Hegseth is just one of the targets for incoming Democrats. The outcome of this impeachment effort is uncertain, but this could be a brutal fight ahead. Pete Hegseth wouldn't get into many details yesterday, but he knew what was coming. Peter Brian Hegseth thus warrants impeachment, trial, removal from office. It was Republican congressman and frequent Trump critic Thomas Massie who introduced a measure to impeach Hegseth in the House. Democrats quickly picked up the mantle. The Senate needs to put Pete Hegseth on trial so we can remove him. For his catastrophic failure in Iran. And Democrats in both houses are expected to widely back the effort, which cites Hegseth's handling of the war in Iran, the operation to remove Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, and attacks on suspected drug smuggling boats, among other charges. And there may be some Republican support too, but how much is unclear. At the White House, President Trump was not happy. We won two wars. We've made the world a lot safer place and then we're supposed to be, why haven't we gone after all these other people that ran wars that lost? And Hegseth said it was all politically motivated. These are the kind of partisan political games Democrats have been playing for a very long time against the president. This isn't the first time that Hegseth has fought for his job, and while the president supports him, he has also said the administration could be in for more changes now after the midterms.
