Pete Hegseth Impeachment | US House Blocks Bid to Impeach Defense Secretary Hegseth Over Iran War

Massie, an outgoing Kentucky Republican, had hoped to draw votes from Republicans upset with Hegseth's policies and wary of the unpopularity of the Iran war, but no other Republicans joined him. Democrats had voiced strong support for the impeachment effort. But 11 Democrats, including former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi of California, did not vote. If eight of them had, the procedural measure would have been defeated, paving the way for a full House impeachment vote. Pelosi's office did not immediately respond to a request for comment on why she missed the vote.
