US congressmen are likely to push for the impeachment of Secretary of Defense Hagerseth as soon as next week. The war in Iran promoted by Hegeses is thought to be part of the cause of the Republican Party's fiasco defeat in the midterm elections, which may give potential impeachment action more support. Kentucky Republican Congressman Thomas Massie, who has always been dissatisfied with Trump, said that after the House of Representatives reconvenes next week, he “definitely” will once again file an impeachment motion against Hagerseth. Massie had previously proposed the impeachment of Hegeses on the grounds that the latter started the war against Iran without the approval of the National Assembly. Trump told reporters on Thursday that Hegesses' work was “excellent” and said he “may have attracted some opposition” because he cracked down on the Pentagon's diversification initiatives. Hegeses also defended herself by posting a six-minute video on social media platform X on Thursday. He called Massie “a disgruntled and defeated congressman” and said that Massie filed a “ridiculous impeachment motion” against him.
