Rep. Jonathan Jackson Calls for Pete Hegseth Impeachment ... Then Botches Vote

11 Democrats accidentally missed the Pete Hegseth impeachment vote, but I don't think it was any accident, because I saw one of them there at the vote with time to spare. Rep Jonathan Jackson tweeted out that several members had missed the vote because of a traffic jam. Had that traffic jam not been there, they would have made the vote. They would have won the vote, in fact, but they lost it. Because of that traffic jam, says rep Jonathan Jackson. But I saw Jonathan Jackson on the steps after I interviewed AOC at 5.55pm and it ended a couple minutes later on the steps, I saw him. I saw Jonathan Jackson filming a social media video about the Hegseth impeachment and that would have been at about 5.57, 5.58pm. The Hegseth impeachment vote didn't close until 6.05pm and he was on the steps, like that's where the vote is, just go inside the door, you're right there. So what happened in that time I don't know but this traffic jam thing, it's not the truth or it's not the whole truth or it's, he could have made the vote. Rep Jonathan Jackson could have made the vote, he didn't make the vote. I don't know why he didn't make the vote but I just think that this traffic jam nonsense is nonsense. I just got off the phone with Rep Jackson who agrees with my timeline and remembers seeing me, remembers talking to me. So I asked like, well, why didn't you make the vote then? You were right there. And all he could say to me was it was a mistake. He said it was a mistake. He goes, I'm taking accountability. I messed up my times. I'm embarrassed. He goes, I'll accept the consequences of this, but it was a mistake. And I say, well, what was the mistake? Like, why didn't you make the vote? You had seven minutes from the Capitol steps to walk 13 steps to press the button to vote. Why couldn't you walk those steps? He wouldn't elaborate. He goes, mistake, leave it at that. It's on me. I mean, he claims that's him taking accountability. I wish he'd take more accountability because clearly, clearly. The whole traffic jam thing wasn't the reason he didn't vote. He was there, he could have voted, he didn't vote. He wouldn't tell me why not. He wouldn't tell me what happened in those minutes where he could have pressed the button, he could have got Hegseth impeached further to it, he wouldn't tell me why. Make a mistake, he said he made a mistake. I think that's, it's not good enough. It's just not good enough. If this guy is the war criminal you say he is, if this guy is as dangerous to America and our soldiers out there as you claim he is, it's got to be better than that. You've got to tell the truth. You've got to tell people, your constituents who have put you there to make these votes, what did you do with those seven odd minutes that you were on the Capitol steps walking up? What were you doing there? He didn't vote. He could have voted. It was a choice. It wasn't a traffic jam.
