House blocks effort to advance impeachment articles against Hegseth

Saudi Gazette reported that the Republican-controlled House blocked the effort to advance impeachment articles against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth by 211-204 on Tuesday. Thomas Massie had reintroduced the articles on Monday and was the only Republican to vote to keep them alive; 11 Democrats missed the vote. Massie alleged that Hegseth carried out unlawful military orders and violated the War Powers Resolution. Hegseth rejected the impeachment effort as a policy dispute. The procedural vote did not impeach or remove him.
