US House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries expressed support for the impeachment of Secretary of Defense Pete Hugseth, saying that he “resolutely agrees” with the impeachment bill; the relevant bill will be submitted as early as this week. Jeffries said on Sunday, “This so-called Secretary of Defense abused his power and undermined national security, led the launch of this reckless and expensive selective Iran war, pushed up prices for the American people, and made the country more insecure.” He said that the Democratic House of Representatives will meet on Tuesday to discuss the impeachment resolution. This is the first caucus meeting since the Democratic Party took control of the Senate and House of Representatives in the midterm elections.
