Description
Pete Hegseth's job security. With the outgoing Congress returning to Washington, a House impeachment vote on the Defense Secretary — an effort led by outgoing Republican Rep. Thomas Massie — is expected this week. Democrats are expected to vote for impeachment in large numbers, and some Republicans may join them, potentially making the week politically embarrassing for Hegseth. Even so, the reporter notes there is a good chance Hegseth keeps his job: removal would require a Senate trial, and with Republicans currently controlling the Senate, the numbers for that do not appear to be there.
