House Speaker Mike Johnson canceled Thursday votes and sent members home early for the midterm recess, effectively delaying a vote on Rep. Thomas Massie's resolution to impeach Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth until after the November elections.
Republican Representative Thomas Massie of Kentucky filed eight articles of impeachment against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Tuesday, accusing him of violating the War Powers Resolution and launching military actions against Iran without congressional approval.
The House overwhelmingly passed a resolution led by Rep. Thomas Massie to force disclosure of Ethics Committee records identifying members of Congress who used taxpayer funds to settle sexual misconduct claims. The measure aims to bring transparency to what critics have called a 'slush fund' for confidential settlements.
