Story summary

As of November 9, 2026, Republican Congressman Thomas Massie introduced new articles of impeachment against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, setting up a potential vote in Congress. This move follows significant Republican losses in the midterm elections and rising criticism over the ongoing war with Iran. Despite calls for Hegseth's removal, President Donald Trump has publicly supported him, stating that he is "doing a great job." However, Massie’s actions reflect growing pressure within the GOP to address perceived failures related to the Iran conflict and political fallout from recent elections. The move could escalate tensions between Congress and the executive branch as Democrats prepare to use their new majority to investigate Pentagon leadership.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political question, so it has no leaning score. That is an answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political position.
