WATCH: Rep. Massie speaks after filing Hegseth impeachment resolution
Rep. Thomas Massie, a Kentucky Republican, forced an impeachment vote against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on 9 November 2026, reading a resolution on the House floor that largely centers on the war in Iran. Democratic leaders Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer back the push, while Trump called Massie a "loser," Speaker Mike Johnson and other Republicans expressed frustration, and Hegseth brushed aside the effort ahead of a House vote that could come by mid-week.
