House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries said he strongly supports impeaching
Defense Secretary Peter Hegseth and backing measures are likely to be filed this
week. On ABC’s This Week Jeffries accused Hegseth of abusing his office,
undermining national security and precipitating a selective, costly military
action against Iran that has driven up US prices. House Democrats plan an
initial meeting next Tuesday to discuss a potential resolution — their first
such meeting since winning both chambers in the midterms.
