Jeffries Says He's a 'Hard Yes' on Impeaching Hegseth

House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries is all in on impeaching Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth. Asked about the push, Jeffries said Sunday he's a “hard yes” on a measure that could be introduced as soon as this week, according to The Hill.

Jeffries didn't mince words on ABC's This Week. He accused Hegseth of abusing his power, undermining national security and engineering what he called a “reckless and costly war of choice in Iran” — a conflict Jeffries said has sent prices soaring for Americans and left the country less safe.

The timing matters. House Democrats will talk over the potential resolution Tuesday, their first gathering since winning both chambers of Congress in the midterm elections — a win that handed them the runway to actually pursue it.

No vote is scheduled yet, and the resolution hasn't been formally introduced. But with Jeffries publicly locked in and his caucus heading to the table this week, the opening move in an impeachment fight over the Pentagon's top job could come fast.

For now, the math is on Democrats' side after their midterm sweep. The question is how quickly they turn Jeffries' “hard yes” into an actual article — and what Hegseth and the White House do about it.
