US House Rejects Impeachment Bid Against Defense Secretary Hegseth

The US House of Representatives on Tuesday rejected a Republican-led effort to impeach Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. The impeachment bid stemmed from criticism of Hegseth's handling of the ongoing conflict with Iran. Republicans, despite their recent midterm election defeat, managed to rally support against the impeachment motion. This victory for President Donald Trump comes amidst a period of political turmoil for the Republican party.
