Video: Rep. Jonathan Jackson Calls for Pete Hegseth Impeachment ... Then Botches Vote
TMZ DC

Rep. Jonathan Jackson couldn't wait another day to impeach Pete Hegseth ... but somehow couldn't make it a few more steps to the House floor to actually vote.

The Illinois Democrat was among 11 House members who missed Tuesday's crucial vote on Hegseth's impeachment ... allowing Republicans to send the resolution to the Judiciary Committee in a 211-204 vote.

Video: Rep. Jonathan Jackson Says Pete Hegseth Impeachment Is Urgent
TMZ DC

Representative Jonathan Jackson says he knows Democrats might benefit from waiting until the new Congress is sworn in before impeaching Pete Hegseth ... but they simply can't wait anymore.

Charlie caught up with the Illinois congressman on Tuesday ... and asked why Dems don't wait until January -- when they'll have a vast majority in both the House and Senate -- before impeaching Secretary Hegseth.

Rep. Jackson points out a Democrat isn't forcing the impeachment issue here ... Republican Congressman Thomas Massie is -- so they can't actually stop it.
