US Politics Daily@uspoliticsdailyDefense Secretary Pete Hegseth is pushing back against fresh calls for him to step down after the midterms. In a video on X, he waved off impeachment articles that Rep. Thomas Massie plans to bring back when Congress returns next week.
Rep. Adam Smith, the top Democrat on the House Armed Services Committee, expects enough Republicans to back impeachment. Trump has said he intends to keep Hegseth at the Pentagon.
Smith has also called for more forceful Pentagon oversight in the new Congress, with the Iran war at the top of his list.
