US Politics Daily@uspoliticsdailyHouse Republicans voted 211-204 to reject an impeachment resolution against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, a measure filed by GOP Rep. Thomas Massie. The eight charges included violating the War Powers Resolution over the Iran war.
Hegseth brushed off the effort as theatrics. Even if it had passed the House, it would have needed two-thirds of the Senate, where Republicans hold 53 of 100 seats.
Democrats take control of both chambers in January and could revive the push then. Hakeem Jeffries, who backed the effort, is expected to become Speaker.
