Pete Hegseth faces imminent impeachment vote in House
When they impeach Pete Hegseth they could just play this entire episode of @lastweektonight.com as the opening argument.
Kevin M. Kruse856For a comedy show, this episode will make your blood boil a surprising amount. I don't care if Hegseth resigns, he still needs to be sent to prison for this shit
Teaching in liminal space42One of the moments in the episode that was upsetting, just because how clear and obvious it is was when they said that the boat strikes were either war crimes or murder. There is no other way to argue that, and the news has dropped the ball on accurately reporting on these atrocities.
johnnytone.bsky.social20Hegseth is basically every negative behavioral aspect of the adult male human, rolled into one horrible mutation of humanity.
Terri Churchill17I was literally SCREAMING through a good deal of the episode. It's enraging!
Stewie12He’s just so damn good at what he does. And a big shoutout to his staff!!!
Michele Lamb10“Where is his thrust” 💀
Your Internet Friend Tom Tomorrow541I'm mostly allergic to video but man this is worth setting aside the time watching start to finish
Brian Finucane62Good discussion of the boat strikes here.
Dr. Samantha Hancox-Li57[nam-shub of enki voice] the secretary of defense is an email job
Critical Bill.20bsky.app/profile/kevi... Opening statement. Let John Oliver deliver it.
clevrgirl12Was just thinking the same! #impeach
Henry Barajas 🔜 Silver Lake Comics Fair6All the House has to do is play this video during Hegseth's impeachment. He should lived in disgrace for the rest of his life for bombing Shajareh Tayyebeh Elementary.
Classics & Virtues 5At the end there’s a clip of an 11 yr old who lost her sister in the school bombing saying “it’s just the govt that is cruel & dirty, most people in America are good, they know this is not right”. A depth of grace & charity (more than we deserve) ironically lacking among the Christian nationalists
Heather in Chicago5Worth watching in full, trust me.
Classics & Virtues 3Doug Wilson on the John Oliver Jumbotron
Mark Pickens2Removal is a long-shot, but it’s a good start. Call Congress, support the impeachment of Hegseth. 202-224-3121 Here’s another @resist.bot petition to sign in support: Text ‘sign PMOUUW’ to 50409. resist.bot/petitions/PM...
A House vote on the impeachment of Pete Hegseth could happen as soon as today. Tell your representative to support articles of impeachment against Hegseth for illegal military operations and violating congressional war powers: act.indivisible.org/sign/tell-yo...
Elizabeth Edgett11And free USAF Major Jason Watson from solitary confinement!
Gratitude3My representative is set to do just that but I wanted my voice to be heard, loud and clear. So I did!
Donna M3Just called my Reoublican rep’s two offices to demand he support articles of impeachment. C’mon everyone, flood their phone lines!
Valerie ❌👑2Absolutely 👍👍!!! Also, we MUST stop S Bill 5653 BAAJA, aka the Dirty Data Center bill. No exaggeration, it would undermine democracy and environmental protections. Also Trump wants. Senate is supposed to vote TODAY. Follow @doctorvive.bsky.social for more info bsky.app/profile/nodi...
PooterheadPharm1Err, my House Rep is Thomas Massie.
LaPedant1We have to wait til Jan for all the Dems to take office. I don't see it happening with this congress.
Richard Kadrey58First Hegseth, then RFK jr.
DuendeonFuego9yes and The Hague please
Elizabeth!6This cheers me up a bit.
Liberty and Justice for All2THIS ⬇️ Call your representatives, make sure they understand what we want...

Here’s our story about U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, the mess he’s made at home and abroad, and why anyone in a marching band should be praying particularly hard for his impeachment. https://youtu.be/LO5iHyYa0XM
PrineSwine14Erudite comedian journalist mercilessly skewers kettlebell dipshit. (Bluesky user agrees.)

EASTMAN2Hegseth is a danger to the nation because of his gross incompetence, his extreme Christian nationalism, and his mindless devotion to Trump. He does not care about our military service members. He must be removed from office before more lives are lost because of his arrogance and stupidity.
The Vegan's Voice | Michael Corthell2Donald Trump can lose an election without immediately losing his grip on the Republican Party. The confrontation over Pete Hegseth will help show how much of that grip remains. essayx.substack.com/p/hegseths-f...
devin-a-92.bsky.social2As much as I hate hegseth and his sexism as well as racism, not letting some people in the military could be a blessing in disguise, because war in general is a bad thing
Harry Pujols1He tried to fat-shame a Canadian ROTC student, one of the countless atrocities he has done that didn't make it to the episode.
Anjali Dayal65this is very well done
Leila Green Little8This week’s episode is joyful and fantastic. Must watch.
Turing Pest4Hegseth should be dragged to the Hague and this video should be shown as evidence
Charlotte.3I watched this earlier today and it's excellent. Also I had no idea Hegseth hit someone when he threw that axe and missed, glad the guy is okay
bubbie50.bsky.social2"Tick Tock, bitch, the mid terms are over"
NEW: The House may impeach Pete Hegseth this week. But Speaker Mike Johnson doesn't have to send the articles to the Senate. How Rs could sidestep an immediate trial and kick the matter to the next, Democratic-led Congress. www.politico.com/live-updates...
Kyle Cheney62It's a Pelosi-era tactic that could help Republicans avoid a costly impeachment battle on the cusp of a Democratic takeover. Johnson declined to say Monday whether he would pursue this path. www.politico.com/live-updates...
Sunshine16A POTUS who wasn’t a moron would fire Hegseth so he could rush a new DOD Secretary through confirmation before the Dems take over. Johnson can pull this stunt, but he’s just delaying the inevitable.
gmachancla.bsky.social6Sure, tighten that rope around the GOP’s neck so in two years they disappear completely.
Iputadollariniwinacar4Sure if they want Democrats to lead the trial after swearing in in january
Martijon3Johnson is still a subservient puppy waiting orders? Why would any of the booted Republicans in both houses support Hegseth in lame duck? They know how bad he is.
Sue Hynes2could is a big word, and Mike Johnson will make sure he gets it over to the Senate so Rs can deny convicting him.
Andy Craig186This is wrong to say it's up to Johnson to appoint impeachment managers. The House does that by resolution. Delegating to the speaker is an option but it's not automatically up to him.
Brian Finucane38Delaying an impeachment trial of Hegseth until the Democrats control the Senate seems like a worse outcome from the administration's perspective (assuming Hegseth is still around). What am I missing?
Ben Siemon8Sure, wait until the Senate is run by Democrats.
Republican Thomas Massie is pushing to impeach US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. His eight charges include waging war against Iran without congressional authorization and other alleged abuses of power. The House must address his resolution within two legislative days. #US
mikkeljylland.bsky.social7It has today been confirmed that Boebert from the state of Colorado will lose her seat in the US House of Representatives. She was an outspoken part of the push for ending US aid to Ukraine.
Leaning Red Panda2As long as he the is first of many and not a single scapegoat we are fine with that
Julius Sneezer1Good. And do the same to Trump.
Raymond1Hegseth is just Trump's Puppet, why not impeach the Boss?
Nafnlaus 🇮🇸🇪🇺🇺🇦10Maybe I'm weird, but I expect a significant increase in what's up to recently been nearly-nonexistent bipartisanship in the US congress. For once, and at least for now, Republicans aren't scared of crossing Trump - they're scared of being seen as supporting everything he does.
Herbefol (aka Emmanuel Tollé)4Ça y est, la guerre commence. Note : Thomas Massie est un républicain qui n'a pas obtenu l'investiture cette année, ayant perdu la primaire locale face à un candidat soutenu par Trump, puisqu'il était critique de Trump. Il est donc encore en poste jusque début 2027.
With Pete Hegseth on the cusp of a possible impeachment vote by the House, let's revisit our conversation with his spiritual advisor, a Christian nationalist pastor who wants to make Moscow, Idaho, a Christian town.
jimmybcomputerguy.bsky.social9I wouldn't trust that guy with a bag of dirt.
RATFM🖕👊7that guy is about as Christian as Usama bin Ladin
Jay Bryant4People like this are the enemy of civilization.
Mike Manto3There's nothing Christian about Christian Nationalism bsky.app/profile/mike...
Lush Flimbaugh2The irony of preaching faith while living in and acting out of abject fear of anyone or anything outside of your experience.
Ken Shaw2the stinking lying fake KKKhristian has a look of "please punch me hard" on his ugly mug.
Liberty and Justice for All3This guy is pure evil, there is nothing "Christian" about what he advocates. He's a dangerous fanatic, misogynist, bent on spreading a very sick agenda, which has zero to do with the Bible.

BREAKING: Rep. Massie refiles impeachment articles against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, teeing up a vote that could gain support from members of both parties.
EASTMAN1Hegseth is a danger to the nation because of his gross incompetence, his extreme Christian nationalism, and his mindless devotion to Trump. He does not care about our military service members. He must be removed from office before more lives are lost because of his arrogance and stupidity.
Forever, Forever1(202) 224-3121 Keep calling your reps Jefferies and Schumer have taken to intimidation tactics to suppress this upcoming vote for Speaker and Senate Leader We need to ask our reps directly "Are Jefferies or Schumer threatening you with retribution?" Lifeguard this Blue Wave from drowning!
The Most Open-and-Shut Impeachment Case Is Not Pete Hegseth trib.al/WCRdZ8p
My case against it is I just think he's too incompetent to win anything. Sure, he needs to go, but he can be lower on the list.
I hate it here.1RFK will kill more Americans than Pete Hegseth.
Rhuta Bhayga1100% agree. Can't they do a two-fer?
Otto VH2Those faces...say all you need to know.
