I’m a Yes / A Farce and a Stunt: Aguilar and Hegseth on the Impeachment Vote

Rep. Pete Aguilar says he and Leader Jeffries are yes votes on the Hegseth impeachment articles. Secretary Pete Hegseth calls the push a farce and a stunt. Two voices in sequence on the vote that sent the articles to the Judiciary Committee, 211 to 204.

The House voted 211 to 204 on Tuesday to send the eight impeachment articles against Secretary of War Pete Hegseth to the Judiciary Committee. This video carries the two voices at the center of that vote, one after the other, each at his own event on Tuesday.

House Democratic Caucus Chair Pete Aguilar, at the weekly House Democratic press conference: “The leader has said he’s a yes. I’ve said publicly I’m a yes. But members are going to make their own decisions along the way and we respect that. The only people truly that govern whether they are going to be on the end of an impeachment proceeding are those individuals, those cabinet members, because their conduct will decide whether that is the ultimate outcome or not.”

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, at a Pentagon briefing the same day: “What one disgruntled and defeated congressman is attempting is not oversight, and it’s not accountability. It’s a political spectacle, a personal manifesto driven by ego and resentment. Time for one man’s final days in Congress to try to do damage to this president, this country, and most irresponsibly the warriors who defend it. It’s a farce and it’s a stunt, and everybody knows it.”
