Pete Hegseth is “very likely” to be impeached over his handling of the Iran war, according to a senior Republican.

Senator Ted Cruz said “the votes are there” to sanction the self-style Secretary of State for War.

But Cruz said he believed Hegseth will either stand down voluntarily or be sacked by Donald Trump before then.

Republican Congressman Thomas Massie introduced eight articles of impeachment against Hegseth on Monday.

    No one does false flags, they instigate and allow a response to land.

    Israel tried it and Iran didn’t bite.

    trump launched attacks on election day and Iran didn’t bite.

    And Trump won’t try to instigate to save hegsforth, because it hurts trump now.
