The first vote to impeach Pete Guest has begun in the US House of Representatives.

The United States House of Representatives is voting to determine whether or not one Republican representative's effort to impeach Defense Secretary Pete Guest will count.

The House of Representatives has 435 members, including 218 Republicans, 214 Democrats and one independent representative, and two vacant seats; But last night less than 400 legislators were present at the vote. This means that the evening's efforts may face the question of the presence of the representatives.

Republican Rep. Thomas Massey introduced his impeachment bid to Congress yesterday, and Pete Guest talks about it at a press conference.

Thomas Massey's decision contains eight charges for the impeachment of Pete Guest, accusing him, among other things, of violating the War Powers Act approved in 1973 in connection with America's role in the war with Iran.
