You don’t have to defend Massie, he did it for himself. Also the the democrats are just gonna impeach him when they have congress and can control televised hearings for the impeachment

I wish, I just have a dark feeling the Dems will be just as lazy as they are now come January, and I know Schumer and Jeffries will move mountains to try to save Hegseth. I’ll have to believe it when I see it, but I HOPE I am wrong.

I’m pretty sure they’ve both called for him to be impeached, so I don’t know where you’re getting that from

Even if they had no chance, not even showing up tells me they do not take this shit seriously in the slightest. Thats where my pessimism comes from. If their hearts were in it, they would show up even to just symbolically vote for impeachment (considering the gravity of his war crimes)

The fact they didn’t even show up to symbolically vote, despite the extreme gravity of Hegseth’s war crimes, tells me they aren’t going to take this very seriously. Even if it was a doomed vote, I would be rushing to the Capitol to show I am against the war crimes as a matter of principle. Hegseth is accused of very very serious crimes. This wasn’t a vote to establish something small and insignificant like establishing a national pretzel day. It was a stark and serious moral question.
