Thomas Massie seeks to impeach US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth over Iran war

Thomas Massie, an outgoing Republican congressman, has initiated impeachment proceedings against US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth due to the Iran conflict. He introduced eight articles accusing Hegseth of waging war illegally without Congress approval and misusing Pentagon authority. Despite this, the impeachment is unlikely to succeed as Republicans maintain control until January. Hegseth has dismissed the attempt as a sham, confirmed he will stay in office, and received support from Donald Trump who praised Hegseth's military successes.
