11 Democrats missed vote, which failed 211-204 and effectively killed effort to oust Hegseth for now; Trump hails ‘exoneration of a Great American Patriot’
Some Democrats, out of the 11 who missed the key procedural vote on Tuesday to impeach Pete Hegseth, blamed a traffic jam in Washington DC for their inability to make it to the US Capitol in time.
By a vote of 211-204, Republicans referred the articles of impeachment to the judiciary committee – effectively killing the effort to oust Hegseth.
