Center-Right Owned by Adani Group (AMG Media)'US Didn’t Start The War, Iran Did’: Pete Hegseth Hits Back Amid Impeachment Threat
What's behind this
U.S. Vice President JD Vance has vigorously defended Secretary of War Pete Hegseth against a push for impeachment, calling the effort “absurd” and “ridiculous,” and saying it is driven by political resentment over military reforms rather than any constitutional wrongdoing. Vance added that the move, led by Rep. Thomas Massie, is a politically motivated distraction that could send the wrong signal to U.S. adversaries. At the same time, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Washington sees no need for fresh major military action against Iran, noted that sanctions are working, warned Tehran of retaliation and said Iran does not appear realistic about negotiations.
