Jeffries backs impeachment of Hegseth and accuses him of undermining US national security through the Iran war

Iran ·

Hakeem Jeffries, the Democratic minority leader in the House of Representatives, said he firmly backs the impeachment bill against War Secretary Pete Hegseth, accusing him of abusing his powers and causing a war on Iran that he described as reckless, costly and failed. The move follows a bill brought by Republican Representative Thomas Massie over the war waged by the United States and Israel against Tehran.

The US Congress can impeach federal officials. The House of Representatives brings charges, and the Senate decides whether to convict and remove the official.
