> The US House has rejected an effort to impeach Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth over allegations that he waged war on Iran without congressional authorisation. A majority voted to send the articles to a committee, effectively shelving the bid brought by Republican Thomas Massie for now. Hegseth called it a “farce” and “sabotage”.
