Following a failed attempt in the U.S. House of Representatives to impeach Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, President Donald Trump took to social media to celebrate the outcome, posting that the effort had “miserably FAILED!”
On Tuesday, Republicans blocked the House from holding a direct vote on the impeachment resolution, passing a procedural motion to refer the measure to committee in a 211 to 204 vote.
The votes fell largely along party lines, with all Republicans, besides Thomas Massie (R-Ky.), voting in favor of tabling the measure. The effort was originally introduced by Massie — who argued that Hegseth repeatedly bypassed Congress’s explicit constitutional authority to declare war.
In response to Massie’s allegations, Hegseth maintained that military operations in Iran, Yemen and Venezuela were lawful executive actions rather than constitutional violations.
In his Truth Social post, the president defended Hegseth, touting his record of achieving the highest recruitment numbers in military history. Additionally, Trump took the opportunity to call Massie “a major LOSER.”
Reacting to the vote, Chief Pentagon Spokesman Sean Parnell posted on X to declare “total victory” for Hegseth and the Department of War.
TOTAL VICTORY! The referral of these baseless impeachment articles to the House Judiciary Committee marks total victory for Secretary Hegseth, the Department of War, and the American warfighter. From the beginning, this effort has been a political exercise devoid of merit,… pic.twitter.com/ySqBEmfhns
