President Donald Trump attacked Democrats and Republican Rep. Thomas Massie after the House derailed the Kentucky Republican’s effort to impeach Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
“The Democrats’ attempt to impeach Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has miserably FAILED!” Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform. “Every single Republican, except Thomas Massie, a major LOSER, voted in favor of Pete.”
The president’s victory lap came after the House voted 211-204 to refer Massie’s impeachment resolution to the Judiciary Committee, blocking it from advancing to a floor debate and vote on the articles.
Trump was quick to praise Hegseth and his MAGA administration while taking aim at Democratic lawmakers with an ominous message.
“Again, Victories in Venezuela and Iran, the Best Recruitment Numbers in the History of the Military (Long waiting lists to get in!), and Spirit like rarely seen before, led to the EXONERATION of a Great American Patriot,” Trump wrote Tuesday. “The Democrats continue to weaponize and abuse the United States of America. They must be stopped!”
Moments earlier, Trump posted a photo of Hegseth raising his fist with the caption “TOTAL VICTORY.” He also filled his Truth Social feed with celebratory reposts, memes and other messages about the vote.
