00:00There are eight articles of impeachment that I've just introduced.
00:04I'll be glad to take your questions on it.
00:06The one thing that I want to point out here is a lot of people are saying,
00:13well, I think Peter Hegseth's effective.
00:16He's good at his job.
00:18And so I don't want to vote for these articles of impeachment.
00:21Well, the reality is we're not indicting him for being bad at his job.
00:26In fact, he was very effective at killing schoolchildren
00:29in Iran.
00:30He was very effective at extrajudicial killings.
00:34There's no argument in these impeachment articles that he's ineffective.
00:38I don't know if we have enough votes.
00:39I have no idea.
00:41I haven't spent time on the phone calling people.
00:43I'm doing this because it's the right thing to do.
00:46Everybody gets to take this vote.
00:48I suspect there may be members of Congress who want to put a little daylight
00:52between themselves in this war or themselves in this administration
00:56who survived their election, not just what I call the Retirement Caucus,
01:00whose membership swelled on November 3rd.
01:02I'm talking about the people who are coming back next Congress.
01:06And then in two years, they're going to have to answer
01:09for a war that's gotten even worse.
01:11I'm talking about the people who are coming back next year.
01:11I'm talking about the people who are coming back next year.
