I guess they realized that impeaching Hagseth means that Trump should also be impeached.

That was pretty much the plan all along. We can expect a lot of bills, resolutions, etc, that are put forward for the sole reason of forcing Republicans to obstruct them, while they can.

Likely true in the future but this one was put forward by a very conservative Republican. Thomas Massie of Kentucky.

All part of the plan, or in this case, a parting shot.

Part performative, part sincere. Maddie wants a future and MAGA ain’t it for nobody.

More to the point that impeaching Hegseth would be a stain on the GOP as well as dig up and put a ton of crap the Trump Admin has done on record. GOP couldn't allow that. Of course, the Democrats will likely investigate the extra-judicial killings of civilians at sea. Generally that maneuver isn't done as lightly as the the Trump Admin did.
 
^^^When you follow Trump, then, as he explicitly said, the Constitution itself may have to be set aside, if he disputes an election result. The GOP has ceased to believe in free elections and the will of the people.

A security agent for Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth just warned the reporters here — for Hegseth’s first press conference in 6 months — that we will be physically removed from the briefing room if we are not professional and maintain decorum.
We asked if that meant no shouted questions and got no clarity. It’s the first time any of us could ever remember being threatened like this.
Shouted questions are normal. “This is crazy town” one journalist said, noting the White House has never threatened reporters like that.
We’re in the room, back row:

Too bad Hegseth didn't. Was the photo even passing decorum?

Taking group photographs and laughing while at the most solemn and respected memorial in the country is extremely disrespectful and rude.

He should be impeached for that alone.

The 15 Democrats that were not there for the vote could have put it over the top.

All they had to do is show up and they didn't! Obviously these Democrat congress leaders did not want Hegseth impeached, but to make sure it was done in a manner their dumb and ignorant supporters would not notice!

Why the rush? Can’t they simply impeach the dullard after J3?

It would have been better coming from a Republican.

How?
Are you dreaming of a kumbaya moment?
Repugs are traitors, plain and simple.

It would have been better, more straight forward, and efficient to just show the fuck up! Massy already had the gun loaded and the Democrats decided to put their wrench in the gears. Because secretly they like Hegseth and want to play games and politics.

Putting aside the effort to impeach Hegseth. Why are we paying Congress leaders $150K/year NOT to show up for an important vote????

Oh please don't pretend to give a fuck now about the Trump Admin.

Article regarding the missing reps...

It wasn't 15, it was 11. And it still would have only passed if those 11 showed, but the 7 Repugs that also didn't show up, did not vote. If the 18 that missed the vote, showed it would have been 215-218

Long story short, the article says Dem leadership not happy people missed the vote. GOP'ers missed it too.

Outside the limits of the article, In the end, the trial wouldn't have happened in the Senate. They would have voted immediately. So nothing was coming of it. Massie wanted some theater/make a point. I read someone say Massie was a RINO, the right-wing has lost their minds that badly.
