Rep. Thomas Massie introduces articles of impeachment against War Secretary Pete Hegseth
The House of Representatives is scheduled to take a procedural vote on Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY)’s impeachment resolution against War Secretary Pete Hegseth.
Massie introduced eight articles of impeachment against Hegseth on the House Floor Monday, then held a press conference, arguing that Hegseth should be impeached for the Iran war, Venezuela, and attempting to punish Democratic lawmakers who told troops they should disobey orders.
During the press conference, The Gateway Pundit asked Massie whether any Republicans had committed to supporting the resolution. “No,” he said, adding, “a lot of them tell me they don’t like Hegseth.”
Asked about the goal of his impeachment effort if it’s not going to pass in the current Republican-controlled Senate and whether he thinks it will end the war, Massie acknowledged, “Well, I don’t know if it’s going to pass the House or not.”
“What I want to see is a vote in the Senate. I want to see them go on record. They could dispose with it the way Chuck Schumer did with an impeachment resolution, I think, against Mayorkas, where they don’t really vote on the substance. They just try to dismiss it out of hand instead of getting into the trial and having, you know, a hearing on it, but as long as they have a vote over there, I think it’s good,” he added.
WATCH:
House Speaker Mike Johnson could also refuse to transmit the impeachment to the Senate if it passes.
Hegseth responded to the impeachment attempt during a press conference this morning, calling it a “farce” and a “stunt” and slamming Massie as “disgruntled and defeated.”

Massie, who predicted that a vote would be held this week, shared the House schedule on X this morning, showing a vote will be held at 5:30 p.m. ET.
“Today the House will vote on the Hegseth Impeachment Resolution. The first vote will be on a procedural motion to kill the resolution such as motion to ‘refer to committee,’” Massie wrote on X.
“If we can overcome that effort, we will proceed to a real debate and vote on the Articles of Impeachment.”
