“How would impeaching Hegseth work?”
House moves to impeach Defense Secretary Hegseth on abuse of power charges
Key points
Representative Thomas Massie introduced eight articles of impeachment against Hegseth.
Impeachment requires a simple House majority, with potential derailment by procedural moves.
If approved in the House, charges would go to the Senate for trial and verdict.
A two-thirds Senate conviction is required for removal from office.
Historical context: only three cabinet secretaries have faced impeachment proceedings.
