Hegseth defends his record, Iran war as impeachment vote looms
The Washington Post reports that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth held his first Pentagon news conference in six months, a combative appeal to President Trump to save his job days before a House impeachment vote over the stalemated Iran war, which he called "sabotage." A resolution by Rep. Thomas Massie accuses Hegseth of violating the War Powers Act by starting the war without Congress's consent, and Trump, in a post the article quotes, says Hegseth should be praised, not impeached.
