House tables Hegseth impeachment, effectively killing it in current Congress

The House of Representatives voted Tuesday to refer GOP Rep. Thomas Massie's resolution to impeach Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth to the House Judiciary Committee by a 211-204 vote, effectively killing the measure for the remainder of the Republican-controlled 119th Congress. Massie was the only Republican to vote against tabling the measure, along with all House Democrats. In a news conference earlier Tuesday, Hegseth dismissed the impeachment effort as "political spectacle," framing Massie's resolution as an indictment against the troops. #news #petehegseth #fyp
