Republican US Representative Thomas Massie has moved to impeach Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth, accusing him of abusing his office by ordering hostilities against Iran without congressional approval, according to a Reuters report.
Massie, a Kentucky Republican and outspoken critic of the US war on Iran, filed articles of impeachment against Hegseth on Tuesday. Because he filed the resolution as privileged, the US House must take it up within two legislative days, setting the stage for a possible vote.
