Jeffries Is a 'Hard Yes': The Hegseth Impeachment Vote Could Come This Week

For the first time, Hakeem Jeffries has said it plainly on ABC: he is a 'hard yes' on the resolution to impeach Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth — reversing his earlier refusal to back impeachment. Republican Congressman Thomas Massie refiles eight articles of impeachment today, November 9, and House Democrats meet on Tuesday morning, November 10, to plan the next step. Even if the House votes yes, removing Hegseth still requires two-thirds of the Senate.

Why now? On the surface, it is keeping a promise of accountability after the election victory. One layer deeper, it is a test: Jeffries must show voters that winning elections brings real consequences, while Massie — who is leaving Congress — files the charges so Democrats never have to start the fight themselves. And the stakes reach straight into budgets and security: whoever runs the Pentagon decides a $1.5 trillion defense budget and the $15 billion Ukraine package.

We analyze warfare to cherish peace. Will enough votes flip this week to bring Hegseth down, or does he hold on until January?
