Rep. Yassamin Ansari announced she will introduce articles of impeachment next week against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. She accuses Hegseth of repeatedly violating his oath and endangering U.S. servicemembers through reckless operations in and around Iran, and alleges war crimes. Ansari also urged Cabinet officials to consider invoking the 25th Amendment to remove President Trump from office. The move escalates Democratic pressure on the Trump Cabinet and could force House debate and votes if other members join her effort.
