Shocking reporting suggests Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth tried to invest MILLIONS in weapons stocks during the buildup to the war with Iran — which he’s helped facilitate. If true, it means the Defense Secretary attempted to personally profit off an illegal, horrific war that has killed thousands, including hundreds of children.
This is more than just disturbing; it’s outright disqualifying.
The longer Hegseth stays, the longer the list of his offenses: Purging Black and women officers at the Pentagon, failing to keep critical information secure, calling for U.S. troops to commit potential war crimes, and ordering multiple instances of unauthorized use of force from Iran to the Pacific. And these reckless, dangerous actions are merely the tip of the iceberg.
Fortunately, Rep. Yassamin Ansari just introduced seven articles of impeachment against Hegseth, providing us a path to push him out and clear the way for new leadership at the Pentagon.
We’ve just seen how public pressure can drive accountability, with Pam Bondi and Kristi Noem recently forced from their posts. Now, let’s ramp up the pressure to make sure SecDef Hegseth is next.
