Republican Thomas Massie vows to push Hegseth impeachment after the midterms if the US defence secretary is still in post

Thomas Massie accuses Pete Hegseth of launching and waging the war on Iran illegally, defying Congress's order to withdraw and causing needless civilian deaths. The Kentucky congressman first moved to impeach the defence secretary in September. Asked whether he would try again when Congress returns, he replied: 'If he's still SecDef.' Massie is leaving Congress after losing his primary to a Trump-backed rival.

House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries vows to run Hegseth 'out of town' if Democrats win.

Senate Democrats are floating Hegseth's removal as their price for lame-duck defence cooperation.

Ex-congressman Max Rose predicts Trump will fire Hegseth the day after the election.
