Lost by 7 Votes, 11 Democrats Absent: The Hegseth Impeachment Fail | Episode 37

38 min•12 november 2026

Om avsnittet

Pete Hegseth narrowly survived an impeachment vote, 211 to 204. Democrats may have had the votes to win, but eleven of them didn’t even show up. With a margin of just seven votes, where was Hakeem Jeffries? And with Bernie Sanders now refusing to back Chuck Schumer, is Schumer actually going anywhere?


Plus, the Nvidia spy scandal gets bigger. The suspected Chinese spy who had an affair with Jensen Huang had help from her husband and her sister, and her company bought nearly $5 billion in chips with no engineers on staff. Reporting says Trump was briefed twice and brought Huang to China anyway. So what did the president know?


And finally, Trump says another round of bombing Iran is “quite unlikely,” but Iran is threatening senior American officials, and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has moved onto a military base for his own protection. We also look at the floods in Gaza leaving tens of thousands without shelter, and the hundreds of thousands who marched in Amsterdam.
