Hegseth Pentagon Purges
U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is facing an effort to impeach him after Republican Representative Thomas Massie introduced eight articles accusing him, among other things, of starting the war with Iran without congressional authorization and exceeding his powers. Criticism cited by *Foreign Policy* says his decisions have weakened the Pentagon’s readiness by removing more than 24 senior officers, extending troop deployments, failing to secure funding for the war, and allowing munitions shortages to persist. The report also said that 53% of service members want to leave the military early because of the institution’s politicization, while President Donald Trump continues to support Hegseth, who has described the impeachment effort as political.
