YouTube Description
as posted by the channelRep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) is privately proposing articles of impeachment against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, National Security Advisor Michael Waltz and CIA Director John Ratcliffe, Axios has learned.
Why it matters: It would be the most escalatory Democratic response yet to Signalgate, in which a journalist was mistakenly added to a Signal chat in which top Trump officials discussed military strikes in Yemen.
What we're hearing: The high-profile progressive has been pushing the idea of impeachment among fellow House Democrats, a senior House Democrat and another source familiar with the matter told Axios.
The senior lawmaker told Axios it is "all being discussed."
A Democrat leadership aide told Axios that Hegseth should be fired — the step that House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) has called for.
Zoom out: Waltz apparently added Atlantic editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg to the chat, in which Hegseth shared highly sensitive details about military operations against the Houthi rebels in Yemen.
Some Democrats have accused Ratcliffe and Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard of lying to the Senate Intelligence Committee this week by testifying that they did not believe the chat contained classified information.
