> Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth denounced the impeachment effort against him as a “political spectacle” and a personal manifesto driven by ego and resentment. He spoke at a Pentagon news conference, a day after Rep. Thomas Massie launched the effort over Hegseth’s handling of the unpopular war against Iran and other actions.
