Hakeem Jeffries says he is a 'hard yes' for Hegseth impeachment

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., said that he'll support impeaching Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. 

Jeffries told ABC News he's a "hard yes" on the proposed resolution to impeach Hegseth, saying Hegseth "abused his power, undermined our national security, and engineered this reckless and costly war of choice in Iran." 

As a result of the war, Jeffries added, the American people are facing "skyrocketing prices" and are less safe. 

Jeffries said that House Democrats will have a conversation about whether there's enough support for the resolution when they convene in Washington for the first time after the midterm elections on Tuesday. 

He said he believes there is "incredible support" for the resolution.
