On 2026-10-26 Massie told Roll Call he would force a House vote on impeaching Hegseth 'soon after we return' in the week of Nov. 9, so the core assertion holds. The sources give the week of Nov. 9 rather than a fixed vote date on the 9th, and the plan is conditional on Hegseth still being in office.
The host relays this claim without endorsing it. It counts as passed on, not against the post.
This claim is about the present, so it is judged as of the day it was checked.
What was said
… The person angling to replace her, Pete Hexeth, he wants to get out of the Pentagon before Democrats can go after him, and the walls right now are closing in. A House impeachment vote is possible as soon as lawmakers return from the midterms. Congressman Thomas Massey says he'll force a vote shortly after Congress returns on November 9th, a vote that will soon happen in November. It's expected to be close, but Hessit's support is collapsing, even among Trump voters. …
The Parnas Perspective · · from the transcriptPost →What we found
Supports. Roll Call (Oct. 26, 2026) reports Massie said he plans to force a vote on the impeachment resolution the week of Nov. 9, calling it a 'week one' issue for the lame-duck session.[1][2]
Context. Massie said he was 'not sure if I would do it the night we get back, but it would be soon after we return - if he's still in the job,' so the vote date is approximate and conditional.[1]
Context. The House is slated to return Nov. 9, and a later WUKY report (Oct. 29) repeats that Massie will press for a vote in the week starting Nov. 9, so the claim's date tracks the return date.[3][4]
