Pete Hegseth will face a procedural vote on Rep. Thomas Massie’s impeachment resolution in the House of Representatives this evening. 

Massie introduced eight articles of impeachment against Hegseth on the House Floor Monday, then held a press conference, arguing that Hegseth should be impeached for the Iran war, Venezuela, and attempting to punish Democratic lawmakers who told troops they should disobey orders.

During the press conference, The Gateway Pundit asked Massie whether any Republicans had committed to supporting the resolution. “No,” he said, adding, “a lot of them tell me they don’t like Hegseth.”

Asked about the goal of his impeachment effort if it’s not going to pass in the current Republican-controlled Senate and whether he thinks it will end the war, Massie acknowledged, “Well, I don’t know if it’s going to pass the House or not.”

“What I want to see is a vote in the Senate. I want to see them go on record. They could dispose with it the way Chuck Schumer did with an impeachment resolution, I think, against Mayorkas, where they don’t really vote on the substance. They just try to dismiss it out of hand instead of getting into the trial and having, you know, a hearing on it, but as long as they have a vote over there, I think it’s good,” he added.

House Speaker Mike Johnson said earlier that the procedural vote to sideline the resolution is “not going to fail.”

“We have the votes,” he said, according to CBS. “We’ll dispense with the impeachment gambit.”

However, Massie says that “several members” agree with some but not all of his resolution, and he will push for a vote on each article in hopes of passing at least one.

“If the motion to kill my resolution by referring it to committee fails, and we proceed to the Articles themselves, I’ll request a vote on each of the Articles separately,” he said.

I’ve heard from several members they agree with some of the Articles of Impeachment but not all of them.

Still, even if it passes, House Speaker Mike Johnson could kill it by simply refusing to transmit the resolution to the Senate.

Hegseth responded to the impeachment attempt during a press conference this morning, calling it a “farce” and a “stunt” and slamming Massie as “disgruntled and defeated.”
