U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has stated that impeachment proceedings would not effectively remove either President Donald Trump or himself from their respective offices. This comment comes amid ongoing discussions in Congress regarding possible impeachment efforts against Hegseth, led by Representative Thomas Massie. Historically, impeachment requires a two-thirds Senate vote for removal, a threshold not achieved in previous attempts against Trump, who was impeached twice but acquitted both times. Hegseth’s remarks appear to suggest a low likelihood of a successful impeachment resulting in removal.
