Donald Trump’s Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth seems to be on borrowed time with his job. Democrats have made it clear that if they win management of the House of Representatives, they are going to impeach Hegseth.
There are a wide range of potential articles of impeachment that Hegseth could face associated to the blowing up of boats in the Caribbean and potential struggle crimes associated to the Iran War.

Sen. Mark Kelly is a veteran and a US Senator, and he has been an outspoken critic of Hegseth.
On CBS’s Face The Nation, Hegseth was requested, “Well, a number of Senate Republicans have expressed some concern about Secretary Hegseth’s firing. He also announced this past week he’s going to cut by 20% the number of generals and admirals. He says in order to try to change the culture and what the media calls a purge, he says is simply a matter of accountability.

After speaking about Sec. Hegseth’s racism and sexism, Kelly moved on to Hegseth’s incompetence.
