Dems Blow Up Over 11 Reps Who Missed Critical Hegseth Vote

The U.S. House rejected an effort to impeach Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Tuesday night, voting 211-204. Republican Rep. Thomas Massie joined Democrats in supporting impeachment, while 11 Democratic representatives missed the vote. The absences have prompted criticism within the party, with some lawmakers faulting Democratic leaders for failing to rally members ahead of the vote. The dispute has intensified internal tensions following the failed effort.
