Impeaching Peter B. Hegseth, Secretary of Defense of the United States, for high crimes and misdemeanors.

In further violation of his constitutional oath and duties, Peter B. Hegseth has engaged in high crimes and misdemeanors in that—

(1) he has authorized, condoned, or failed to prevent the use of military force in a manner inconsistent with the law of armed conflict, such as operations resulting in large numbers of civilian casualties and the destruction of civilian infrastructure in Iran, including a girls’ school in Minab;

(2) he has undermined or disregarded established rules of engagement designed to minimize harm to noncombatants, including illegal double tap strikes in the southern Caribbean; and

(3) he has engaged in conduct that raises serious concerns of violations of the Geneva Conventions and other binding legal obligations of the United States, including by stating that the United States shall give no quarter, no mercy for our enemies, which is an unlawful command.
