Massie Eats Crow As Political Tantrum Crashes and Burns Over Pete Hegseth Impeachment
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

US House tables outgoing Rep. Thomas Massie's impeachment push against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.

The House voted Tuesday night to table Rep. Thomas Massie's impeachment effort against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who called the whole thing a 'farce' and a 'political spectacle.' Trump piled on, calling Massie a 'TOTAL LOSER' on Truth Social.

What a total masshole, that Thomas guy! The House voted Tuesday night to kill Rep. Thomas Massie’s impeachment push against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, and the whole episode went about as well for Massie as his primary race did. Which is to say, not well at all.

Hegseth came out swinging earlier in the day at the Pentagon, calling the effort a “farce” and a “political spectacle” driven by one man’s bruised ego. “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 said. He also made clear he saw the whole thing for what it was: “It’s a farce, and it’s a stunt, and everybody knows it.”
