House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.), who will likely be the Speaker of the House come January, said Sunday that he is a “hard yes” when it comes to impeaching Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.

“I’m a hard yes on the Hegseth resolution. The so-called secretary of Defense has abused his power, undermined our national security and engineered this reckless and costly war of choice in Iran,” Jeffries said to ABC News’s Jonathan Karl on “This Week.”

Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) had told Karl that he intends to introduce a resolution of impeachment against the defense secretary.

      We want Nuremburg for Jeffries, Schumer, Trump, Hegseth, Kushner,and Biden too while we’re at it. Would save time to make it a group trial. And Jeffries has already said he’s a hard no for impeaching trump. He cant walk corruption like that back, he just needs to resign or get tossed. Either one is fine.
