Articles of Impeachment Introduced Against Pete Hegseth
Representative Shri Thanedar introduced articles of impeachment against Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth on Tuesday, citing “murder and conspiracy to murder and reckless and unlawful mishandling of classified information.” The impeachment stems from scrutiny of Hegseth’s handling of recent military strikes and the “Signal Gate” incident, where he shared sensitive information. These events include strikes in the Caribbean and Pacific Ocean targeting alleged drug smuggling vessels, raising questions about the legality of the attacks. Despite these concerns, and upcoming articles against Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., neither impeachment effort is anticipated to proceed given the current Republican majority.
