Title: Pisshead Pete (Hegseth) Impeachment. Post by greggerypeccary on Apr 21st, 2026 at 4:40pm House Democrats Move to Impeach Defense Secretary Hegseth Democratic lawmakers on Wednesday introduced a resolution to impeach Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, accusing him of abuse of power and war crimes, among other allegations. The six articles of impeachment, which have almost no chance of passing due to Republicans’ slim majority in the House, were first reported by Axios. The resolution is led by Democratic Rep. Yassamin Ansari of Arizona, the first Iranian-American Democrat elected to Congress. The eight Democratic co-sponsors of the bill include Reps. Steve Cohen of Tennessee, Jasmine Crockett of Texas, Nikema Williams of Georgia, Dina Titus of Nevada, David Min of California, Shri Thanedar of Michigan, Brittany Pettersen of Colorado, and Sarah McBride of Delaware. ______________________________________ The second article alleges Hegseth further violated his oath and constitutional duties by engaging in “violations of the law of armed conflict and targeting of civilians.” It points to the destruction of civilian infrastructure in Iran, including a school for girls in Minab, and what it describes as the “illegal ‘double tap’” strikes on boats in the Caribbean that were allegedly transporting drugs to the U.S., as well as Hegseth’s comment last month that the U.S. would have “no quarter, no mercy for our enemies.” |

He won't be convicted or removed through the impeachment process, we all know that. The point is that it's the Democrats' duty to impeach him and that's what they're gonna do. This will anger the rapist in the White House and he might just think that Pisshead Pete is more trouble than he's worth. He might be next to get fired, after Crazy Eyes Patel. |

He's an alcoholic sociopath. A dangerous combination. He murdered 150 little school girls, and didn't blink an eye. His day is coming though. |

Title: Re: Pisshead Pete (Hegseth) Impeachment. Post by Bobby. on Apr 21st, 2026 at 5:14pm He didn't murder 150 little school girls - that was a sad accident caused by over bombing a military target - collateral damage. |

Ah. Let's just call it manslaughter then, shall we? He still slaughtered all the little girls, but it was due to incompetence - it wasn't intentional. |

As much as he deserves to be impeached and then some, nothing will come of this and Hegseth won't be held accountable. Republicans obviously hold the majority in both the House and Senate, so they certainly won't let this go anywhere. Democrats are better off waiting until after the midterms in November when they regain control of either the House or Senate or hopefully both. But it's probably a safe bet the Democrats will regain control of the House at the very least. Then they can impeach Hegseth and Trump and make Trump the lame duck he deserves to be.

It's a sad reality faced by people in the Middle east - the Western powers - including Israel are not prepared to send in troops on the ground as they know they'll be slaughtered in large numbers - that is urban warfare so - what do they do instead? Answer - they destroy buildings - they can do that easily from the safety of an aircraft - with minimal losses of their own - hence: Gaza, Beirut, Tehran - mile after mile of buildings leveled to the ground - many/most used to be homes where innocent people lived. They can't fight a proper war - they destroy buildings - they are cowards. |

Just so. Pisshead Pete flew his pisshead plane into a city of 9.7 million people and accidentally killed 150 little schoolgirls. How peculiar. Only in America, eh? |

In a proper war you invade on the ground and you round up or kill the bad guys. Those days are long past - now they just bomb buildings - and most of the military buildings are empty by the time any war starts. ::) |

Yes, Leroy. Last week, Iran signed a ceasefire, announced the Strait of Hormuz open and let everybody take their oil, free and fair. A day later, America pirated their ship, arrested their crew and stole the contents, with DL back to threatening war crimes in the middle of the night. The question I have for you is this: how can we possibly expect the world to return to normal while he's still in power? We know your response. Yes, Master. |

In a proper war, you stick to the Geneva Convention and the rules of war. Not DL. His administration calls them "useless niceties" and counter to his "Donroe Doctrine" of authoritarian rule. So I'm curious. Do you stand with DL, Leroy and his ilk? Do you think the Geneva Convention and the peaceful rules-based order is a useless nicety? That's a question. |

I take it you are on Iran's side, go on karnal you can say it, we all know it and all you have to do is say it. Why are you so afraid to say you hope Iran defeat America, I'm sure you know the words to the chant don't you. This is your chant karnal (along with greg, sadroo, sprint) "DEATH TO AMERICA", you guys could do a zoom call and chant together. |

OK can you tell me one war where a country has followed the geneva convention. The reason I asked is I have never seen the geneva convention adhered to so how could I possibly assess its effectiveness. |

Poor old Leroy isn't too familiar with a lot of things. The warm embrace of a woman, making love at midnight, piña coladas, the taste of Champagne, getting caught in the rain, or the feel of the ocean. Does he have half a brain? |

It won’t matter. Republicans won’t convict him. They won’t even let a vote happen.
