A Michigan congressman, Shri Thanedar, has made a striking move by introducing impeachment articles against Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth. The charges? Murder, conspiracy to murder, and mishandling classified information.
Thanedar's claims are serious, accusing Hegseth of ordering strikes on a small boat and its survivors without proper evidence. He also alleges that Hegseth endangered troops by leaking classified info in a group chat.
But Hegseth denies these accusations, stating the strikes were legal and targeted foreign terrorists. He even called out the Washington Post for their sources.
This isn't Thanedar's first impeachment attempt. He previously tried to impeach Trump, but that didn't go anywhere.
Now, he's taking on Hegseth, but with the GOP controlling the House, these articles might not go far.
Thanedar's announcement was a bit messy, with some struggling to understand his English. But that's not the main point here.
The bigger picture? This could be a glimpse into what Democrats might do if they regain control of Congress.
