Summarised by AI from 3 articles
Republican Congressman Thomas Massie has moved to hold an impeachment vote against US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, accusing him of waging unauthorized military actions against Iran for over 90 days and abusing his powers.
Massie officially submitted the resolution on Monday, with action expected within 48 hours or by Wednesday. Lankasri reported that Massie had originally introduced the resolution on 15 September before Congress adjourned.
Massie stated the effort aims to pressure President Donald Trump to replace Hegseth before Democrats take control of Congress in January. Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries also called for Hegseth to resign.
Hegseth dismissed the impeachment push as a joke and political targeting, stating he would not be deterred. Dinamina reported that Trump has shown no signs of removing Hegseth and continues to back him.
