- He labeled it a ‘political spectacle’ by a congressional opponent
- Hegseth claimed the move was not about oversight or accountability
Washington, United States: US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Tuesday slammed the move to impeach him as a “political spectacle” by an outgoing congressional opponent of President Donald Trump.
“What one disgruntled and defeated congressman is attempting is not oversight and it’s not accountability. It’s a political spectacle, a personal manifesto driven by ego and resentment,” Hegseth told journalists.
