House Democrat Yassamin Ansari (D-Ariz.) said Monday she will introduce articles of impeachment against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth over his handling of U.S. military operations in Iran, accusing him of "repeatedly violating his oath of office and his duty to the Constitution."
Ansari said Hegseth's actions, including what she described as the "reckless endangerment of U.S. servicemembers and repeated war crimes," warrant removal from office. The move places Hegseth at the center of Democratic criticism of the Trump administration's war effort, as he emerges as a primary political target following recent Cabinet upheavals.
