众议员马西称下周触发对赫格塞思的弹劾表决:共和党选后问责战争部长

中期选举惨败后,共和党内对战争部长 Pete Hegseth 的问责迅速升温。肯塔基州共和党众议员 Thomas Massie 11月4日对 CNN 表示,他计划在国会下周复会时触发对 Hegseth 的弹劾表决;多名共和党消息人士表示,这项表决预计将获得通过,众议院最快下周就可能投票,直接对这位五角大楼负责人作出谴责。

Massie 今年9月提出针对 Hegseth 的八项弹劾条款,指控其未经国会授权对伊朗发动战争、未经宪法授权抓获委内瑞拉总统马杜罗、在加勒比海未经司法授权击杀涉嫌贩毒人员。众议院议长 Mike Johnson 当时让众议院提前休会,避开了选前表决,并称这一弹劾动议是「作秀」。
选后形势发生变化:副总统万斯11月4日直言「我们输的原因就是这场战争」;多名共和党人私下认为,是 Hegseth 说服特朗普发动了一场没有明确退出策略的战争。Massie 已在共和党初选中落败,只能利用跛脚鸭会期推动表决。弹劾只需众议院简单多数即可通过,但罢免定罪需参议院三分之二多数。
Hegseth 一方暂未退让:一名与其关系密切的人士对 CNN 表示,他仍预计自己将留任,并已准备好迎战弹劾努力。特朗普11月4日公开表示不会更换 Hegseth,称他干得非常好。此外,针对卫生与公众服务部长 Robert F. Kennedy Jr. 与教育部长 Linda McMahon 的弹劾决议此前也已有人提出,但在共和党控制的众议院均未获推进;民主党将于明年1月接掌国会两院。

Rep. Massie Says He Will Trigger an Impeachment Vote Against Hegseth Next Week as Republicans Turn on the War Secretary After the Midterm Losses
After the Republican midterm rout, pressure inside the party on Secretary of War Pete Hegseth rose quickly. Republican Representative Thomas Massie of Kentucky told CNN on November 4 that he plans to trigger a vote to impeach Hegseth when Congress returns next week; multiple Republican sources said they expect the vote to pass, and the House could vote as soon as next week to directly repudiate the Pentagon's top leader.

Massie introduced eight articles of impeachment against Hegseth in September, accusing him of waging war on Iran without congressional authorization, seizing Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro without constitutional authority, and killing suspected drug traffickers in the Caribbean without judicial authorization. Speaker Mike Johnson sent the House home early at the time, staving off a pre-election vote, and called the impeachment push a stunt.
The post-election landscape has shifted: Vice President JD Vance wrote on November 4 that 'the reason we lost is the war,' and multiple Republicans have privately argued that Hegseth persuaded President Donald Trump to launch the campaign without a clear exit strategy. Massie lost his Republican primary, leaving him only the lame-duck session to pursue the vote. Impeachment requires only a simple majority in the House, while conviction and removal would require two-thirds of the Senate.
Hegseth is not backing down: a person close to him told CNN he still expects to stay in his role and is prepared to fight an impeachment effort. Trump said publicly on November 4 that he would not replace Hegseth, saying he does a very good job. Impeachment resolutions against Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Education Secretary Linda McMahon have also been filed, but gained no traction in the Republican-led House; Democrats take control of both chambers in January.
