War Secretary Pete Hegseth will hold a Pentagon press briefing this morning, his first since May, to respond to Rep. Thomas Massie’s articles of impeachment.
Massie took to the House Floor to introduce articles of impeachment against Hegseth and held a press conference at the Capitol on Monday, the Gateway Pundit reported.
On Monday, Hegseth told reporters that he’s “not worried” about the attempt and announced his press briefing.
“I’ll tell you this, actually. I hope all of you will join us. We’re going to do a press conference tomorrow morning at the Pentagon on that very topic,” he said.
“I’ll save my remarks there. I hope you’ll all come, loaded for bear with your questions.”
WATCH:
Hegseth previously responded to the impeachment threat, calling Massie a “disgruntled, defeated congressman,” and likening his “sham” impeachment attempt to past impeachments of President Trump during his first term. “It’s all about the politics of personal destruction,” he said. “Didn’t work against President Trump, and it won’t work with me. You can rest assured of that.”
President Trump also responded on Monday, telling reporters he will “stand by” Hegseth even if he is impeached in the House, which still appears unlikely; a conviction in the Senate, even less so.
“Massie is a loser just like you’re a loser at CNN, just like your ratings are a loser,” Trump said, tearing into CNN and defending Hegseth’s tenure at the Pentagon.
The press briefing is scheduled to begin at 8 am ET.
