A Lawmaker Wants America's Military Chief Fired — House Must Vote

Republican lawmaker Thomas Massie said Sept. 15, 2026 that top military leader Pete Hegseth should be fired through a formal trial, listing eight claims he broke America's basic rules. House rules force all lawmakers to vote by Thursday, though Republicans are in charge of Congress. Massie lost his re-election race earlier in 2026 after Trump and Hegseth worked against him.
