  1. In his 34-page resolution, #ThomasMassie argued that #Hegseth has repeatedly abused the powers of his office in leading the #US #war with #Iran, including carrying out #unlawful orders & continuing to keep troops deployed without authorization from #Congress.

    Hegseth, he argued, “has demonstrated that he will remain a threat to the #Constitution if allowed to remain in office, & has acted in a manner grossly incompatible with his duties & the rule of law.”

  6. Because Massie’s resolution carries special procedural powers, it started a legislative clock that required #GOP leaders to put it on the floor in the coming days.

    But now, #Republicans have found a way to stall that vote by leaving early & postponing it until November.
