Yassamin Ansari (D-Ariz.) whose parents fled Iran following the rise of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/democrat-whose-parents-fled-iran-moves-oust-hegseth\">announced<\/a> Monday that she will file articles of impeachment against Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, accusing him of war crimes tied to the escalating conflict in the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ansari, who previously told The New York Times she felt \u201ca rush of hope, but also unease\u201d after Americans and Israelis killed Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in February, has since become sharply critical of how the Trump administration has handled the aftermath.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Her announcement comes at a volatile moment. A ceasefire agreement was reached Tuesday evening, following intense fighting, but tensions quickly resurfaced after Iran again moved to close the Strait of Hormuz on Wednesday, raising fears of renewed economic and military escalation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Donald Trump\u2019s deranged statements \u2014 including one on Easter Sunday \u2014 are further entrenching our country and our world in another devastating, never-ending war,&#8221; Ansari said in a statement announcing her plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She pointed specifically to Trump\u2019s warning to Iran\u2019s remaining leadership to &#8220;open the f&#8212;ing Strait&#8221; of Hormuz or face strikes on critical infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ansari accused the administration of crossing legal and moral lines, arguing that both the president and Pentagon leadership have engaged in conduct that could constitute war crimes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>&#8220;Ansari claimed Trump is threatening war crimes in violation of the Geneva Convention and has already committed &#8216;illegal actions and atrocities already committed at his direction \u2014 including violence that has destroyed schools, hospitals, and critical civilian infrastructure.'&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;As the daughter of Iranian immigrants who fled this regime, and as an American Congresswoman who swore an oath to the United States Constitution, I know that this cannot go on,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Her family\u2019s history with Iran shapes much of her stance. Her father was studying medicine in the United States when the Iranian Revolution unfolded and was unable to return home, while her mother fled the country as a teenager after facing increasing restrictions on women\u2019s rights under the Khomeini regime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ansari is also calling for the invocation of the 25th Amendment to remove Trump from office, and said she will move forward with impeachment proceedings against Hegseth \u201cnext week.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She argued the Pentagon chief has overstepped his authority and violated constitutional limits on war powers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>&#8220;Hegseth\u2019s reckless endangerment of U.S. servicemembers and repeated war crimes, including bombing a girls\u2019 school in Minab, Iran, and willfully targeting civilian infrastructure, are grounds for impeachment and removal from office.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Only Congress has the power to declare war, not a rogue president or his lackeys,&#8221; she added.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>The administration has forcefully pushed back on those claims. Hegseth and Trump recently oversaw a major operation to rescue a U.S. airman shot down by Iranian forces, which the president said required a large-scale military response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pentagon Press Secretary Kingsley Wilson dismissed Ansari\u2019s impeachment effort as political theater.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>&#8220;Secretary Hegseth will continue to protect the homeland and unleash epic fury on Iran\u2019s radical regime,&#8221; Wilson said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;This is just another charade in an attempt to distract the American people from the major successes we have had here at the Department of War.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Ansari\u2019s move adds to a growing list of Democratic efforts to challenge the administration\u2019s conduct in the conflict, even as the fragile ceasefire and renewed tensions in the Strait of Hormuz underscore how quickly the situation on the ground continues to shift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class= \"house-ad\"><center><p class= \"sponsored\">Sponsored<\/p><strong><span style=\" color:#ff0004\" class=\" has-inline-color has-text-align-center\"><a href= \"https:\/\/secure.anedot.com\/ncpd\/edm-em198?source_code=db-ncpd-em198-006\">Police Officer Chance Bretches was awarded a Lifesaving Medal with Valor for rescuing someone from a burning vehicle&#8230;But now radicals are trying to ruin his life just for doing his job.
