Sad Trombone for Thomas Massie As Pete Hegseth | Political News
The most Rep. Thomas Massie will get for his Pete Hegseth impeachment stunt this week is a gold star for attempting, bless his coronary heart.
House blocks Massie’s impeachment effort of Hegseth, bottling it up in cmte. Vote was 211-204 to ship it to the Judiciary Cmte, ending Massie’s gambit. No straight up/down vote on impeachment articles

Massie was the only “Republican” to vote with Democrats.
Though this palms him another L on his approach out the door, his Democrat allies undoubtedly will probably be bringing this up again in the next Congress:
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) described himself as a “hard yes on the Hegseth resolution,” teasing that Dems might attempt to impeach him again.
Defenders of Hegseth insisted that he didn’t commit high crimes or misdemeanors and was merely finishing up Trump’s orders.
“That’s what it is. Policy disagreements, not high crimes, not misdemeanors, not treason, not bribery, not the kinds of offenses the founders intended when they wrote the impeachment clause, the proper remedy for a policy disagreement. It’s legislation. It’s debate,” Hegseth argued.
He’s proper, of course, but his TDS-afflicted critics on the left are gonna be out for blood in a couple of months. We will, of course, keep you posted on developments.
Update: Here’s what President Trump had to say about the news:
The Democrats’ attempt to impeach Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has miserably FAILED! Every single Republican, besides Thomas Massie, a major LOSER, voted in favor of Pete. Again, Victories in Venezuela and Iran, the Best Recruitment Numbers in the History of the Military (Long ready lists to get in!), and Spirit like not often seen before, led to the EXONERATION of a Great American Patriot. The Democrats continue to weaponize and abuse the United States of America. They must be stopped! MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. President DONALD J. TRUMP
TRUMP: Democrats must be stopped. https://t.co/jRNCCmXADk
