While I agree abpit Jeffries, Hegseth not being impeached now is preferable. An impeachment now would have meant a definite exoneration when he was tried by the Senate. They would have declared him innocent and put him back to work at performing war crimes. They’re much more likely to successfully prosecute him when the next Congress is sworn in. The Republicans still control both houses of Congress until January. People need to be patient. The election was a clear sign of the people’s will, but we’ve still got over 6 weeks before the newly elected Dems take office. I much prefer Kegsbreath facing Senators like El Sayed in January rather than a gushing Repugnican Senate telling him what a great hero he is now.
Bullshit.
The democrats can’t even bother to show up for the current impeachment vote.
And Jeffies is just useless corporate meat pretending to be human.

The idea was to take time away from the Senate. The more time they spend dealing with impeachment, the less time they have to lame duck legislate.
