Kentucky Republican Representative Thomas Massie has filed articles of impeachment against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. The move, dated November 9, 2026, according to CNN reporting, is being linked by commentators to alleged US war crimes connected to military action against Iran, and it deepens rifts within the Republican Party over the Trump administration's defense leadership and conduct of military operations.
Why now: An impeachment filing by a member of the president's own party against his defense secretary is an extraordinary intra-party breach tied to escalating controversy over military action against Iran.
