Rep. Thomas Massie introduced articles of impeachment against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, according to reports from CNBC, NPR and Forbes Business.

NPR reported that the articles accuse Hegseth of “high crimes and misdemeanors,” including an allegation that he waged war against Iran in violation of the War Powers Resolution. Forbes Business reported that the filing contains eight charges.

The reports establish the introduction or filing of the articles, but the accounts differ in their focus: NPR detailed the allegations, while Forbes Business reported the number of charges. Neither detail was independently supported by the other cited reports.

CNBC reported that the House was likely to vote on the articles during the week of November 9. That account described the vote as prospective; the reported material does not establish whether a vote occurred or what its outcome was.
