Secretary Hegseth: Impeachment Charges a Stunt 'Driven by Ego and Resentment'"Secretary of War Pete Hegseth is under attack—and it's by Republicans! For the life of me, I don't know why Republicans eat each other. I believe the real reason they are coming after Secretary Hegseth is because he has taken on the anti-God, woke, and DEI initiatives that the Biden administration had pushed down the throats of our military. Since Secretary Hegseth has been at the Pentagon, he's been cleaning house—and millions of Americans are grateful. I encourage everyone to pray for him, that God would give him strength for this difficult hour." -Franklin Graham, via X
Outgoing Republican Congressman Thomas Massie of Kentucky filed the charges Monday in the House of Representatives. Massie accuses Hegseth of:
In a press conference this morning, Secretary Hegseth called the charges "a farce" that mocks the Constitution and criminalizes members of the military. He strongly repudiated the impeachment charges, characterizing the effort as a political stunt rather than a legitimate oversight process. "What one disgruntled and defeated congressman is attempting is not oversight, and it's not accountability. It's a political spectacle, a personal manifesto driven by ego and resentment," Hegseth stated. He argues that Massie is out for revenge because he was defeated by Trump-backed challenger Ed Gallrein in Kentucky's Republican primary on May 19, 2026. Trump had sought to oust Massie because he had become an outspoken critic of the President and his agenda. Hegseth contends there's no constitutional basis for Massie's charges, saying he's fighting a policy battle that has nothing to do with any actual crimes. "In 250 years of our American republic, no Secretary of War or Secretary of Defense has ever been impeached for carrying out LAWFUL MILITARY OPERATIONS—NOT ONCE… "Not under Reagan in Lebanon. Not under Clinton in Kosovo. Not under Obama in Iraq or Syria. Not under Biden in Iraq or Syria. That is the STANDARD. The HISTORY is clear... and one disgruntled Congressman wants to shred it over policy disagreements. "That is what this is—Policy disagreements. "Not high crimes. Not misdemeanors. Not treason. Not bribery. Not the kind of offenses the Founders intended when they wrote the impeachment clause," Hegseth said. He contends that this impeachment resolution will empower America's foes. "It tells our enemies, Iran, the cartels, every adversary watching, that the United States will actually punish its own warriors and its own civilian leadership for successfully executing lawful military operations." Hegseth says he was carrying out the lawful orders from a duly elected commander-in-chief. Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here Click Here and scroll down to watch Sec. Hegseth speak.
