Hegseth faces impeachment push

The impeachment push follows reports that Hegseth has also been withholding military promotions for several Black and female senior officers.

Hegseth has publicly defended the administration's aggressive strike plans, even likening the rescue of a downed airman to the resurrection of Jesus.

Democratic lawmakers have also raised concerns about his decision to move military education away from Ivy League universities toward conservative institutions like Hillsdale College.

While the Republican-controlled House makes a successful impeachment unlikely, the move highlights the deepening partisan divide over the administration's military strategy.
