Senate Republican Tillis expects to vote to impeach Defense Secretary Hegseth
The significance here is less the impeachment math than the partisan signal: a Senate Republican publicly anticipating a vote against a cabinet secretary from his own party implies friction inside the GOP coalition, not just across the aisle. The item is thin on substance, though — no charges, no timing — so the practical effect on markets or policy is unclear. What matters next is whether other Republicans echo Tillis, and whether formal charges ever materialize; until then this reads as a political data point rather than a governance event.
