Pete Hegseth Impeachment Bid Blocked In US House | Democrats Signal More Scrutiny In January | N18G
US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth has secured a reprieve after the Republican-led House of Representatives voted 211-204 to refer eight articles of impeachment against him to the House Judiciary Committee, effectively blocking the effort for now. The resolution, introduced by outgoing Republican Congressman Thomas Massie, accused Hegseth of abusing his powers, including conducting military action against Iran without congressional authorisation.
