Congresswoman Yassamin Ansari has filed articles of impeachment against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
The filing comes a little over a week after Ansari announced plans to initiate an impeachment process against Hegseth, who she says is the chief enabler of an illegal war with Iran.
The U.S. and Israel began military action against the country at the end of February.
Ansari argues that since then Hegseth — who heads the newly dubbed Department of War — has repeatedly broken his oath to the Constitution, put U.S. troops at risk and carried out unlawful military actions — including a U.S. strike that hit a girls school in Minab, Iran.
She says those actions amount to high crimes and misdemeanors and warrant immediate removal by Congress. The Arizona lawmaker filed six impeachment articles against Hegseth and was co-sponsored by 12 other House Democrats.
