wow -- CNN broadcast footage of an Arlington guard yelling at a group with Pete Hegseth to "MAINTAIN SILENCE ... PAY RESPECT!" after someone in his entourage started laughing at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier

🚨This morning we reached the required 218 signatures on my discharge petition for Epstein Files Transparency Act II !
I’m working closely with @RepJayapal, @RepTeresaLF and @RepRoKhanna to get this to the floor for a vote soon.

Absolutely unacceptable that 11 House Dems just *missed* the vote to proceed with the impeachment of Pete Hegseth. What’s the point of being a Rep if you’re not gonna be there for stuff like this?

Sure, house Dems will have 259 seats in January instead of current 213. And Hegseth impeachment can be reintroduced. But Hakeem having 11 Dem absences today on Hegseth (thus losing vote) reveals a Hakeem leadership problem. Embarrassing.

Democrats not showing up for the Hegseth impeachment vote is a giant warning sign. Forget Republicans - did Democrats and their leaders watch the election results last week?

Been saying this for a while, but will repeat it for emphasis: “I was only following orders” was rejected as a defense at the Nuremberg Trials.

Kamlager-Dove on Hegseth Impeachment: We knew that this vote was coming, so people should have gotten their raggedy selves up these steps to vote. There is no reason why we should have lost this vote because of attendance issues.
You know this man should not be in this position. That’s why he got up at 8 o’clock in the morning with his sorry self to plead to the American people.
So shame on folks who are not here. Because these people lost. They lost, and they still found a way to show up to table this bill. Shameful.

IMPEACHMENT, Article III
The law requires our military to withdraw from hostilities within 60 days if Congress does not authorize the activity.
Operation Epic Fury has been underway for 256 days. Congress has not authorized it.
Hegseth is breaking the law.
Not even debatable.

A security agent for Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth just warned the reporters here — for Hegseth’s first press conference in 6 months — that we will be physically removed from the briefing room if we are not professional and maintain decorum. We asked if that meant no shouted questions and got no clarity. It’s the first time any of us could ever remember being threatened like this. Shouted questions are normal. “This is crazy town” one journalist said, noting the White House has never threatened reporters like that. We’re in the room, back row:

Hegseth notes that everything he did was "ordered by the commander in chief"
(he was just following orders, you see)

Today the House will vote on the Hegseth Impeachment Resolution. The first vote will be on a procedural motion to kill the resolution such as motion to “refer to committee.” If we can overcome that effort, we will proceed to a real debate and vote on the Articles of Impeachment.

Everyone knew about Russell Brand. Everyone knew about Diddy, R. Kelly, Harvey Weinstein, Bill Cosby, and Jeffrey Epstein. Everyone knew about Donald Trump. I’m so tired of people protecting rich perverts, keeping their dark secrets for decades. So damn tired.

Massie: Hegseth knowingly executed and implemented unlawful orders.. Hegseth has demonstrated that he will remain a threat to the constitution if allowed to remain in office, and has acted in a manner grossly incompatible with his duties and the rule of law.
Hegseth thus warrants impeachment and trial, removal from office and disqualification to hold and enjoy any office of honor, trust or profit under the United States.
