Jeffries Endorses Hegseth Impeachment as Nvidia Launches Probe

Six people were killed in a shooting in Kraków, Poland, on Saturday, a tragedy that triggered two days of national mourning. The attack occurred in Main Market Square, where the gunman opened fire and killed four women and two men. Sixteen other people were injured. A police officer who engaged the attacker remains in critical condition. Officials stated the suspect held far-right, ultranationalist views. Justice Minister Waldemar Żurek classified the incident as a terrorist offense due to the intent to intimidate a large crowd. The suspect was shot by police and is in critical condition. He faces investigation for six murders related to the square. Authorities are also examining the deaths of three relatives found at his home in Ostrowiec Świętokrzyski, located roughly 93 miles northeast of Kraków.

In Washington, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries endorsed an effort to impeach Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. The New York Democrat confirmed his support during an interview on ABC News’ “This Week.” Jeffries backed the resolution introduced by Republican Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky. A vote on the measure is expected during the coming week. Jeffries’ position may signal how other House Democrats will proceed. The effort tests the chamber’s willingness to remove the Pentagon’s top official. Dissatisfaction with the administration’s handling of the war in Iran contributed to the midterm election results.

Other political leaders shifted focus to economic issues following the elections. Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro told NBC News’ “Meet the Press” that Democrats should prioritize reversing cuts to Medicaid, SNAP food assistance, and the Affordable Care Act upon taking control of Congress in January. Florida Gov.-elect Byron Donalds stated Republicans should accept responsibility for the economy. He said the party should pursue ways to stabilize and reduce healthcare costs. Kansas Sen.-elect Adam Hamilton, a Democrat who flipped a deeply Republican state, emphasized affordability. He told “Meet the Press” he wanted to lower constituent costs. He said he would be disappointed if investigations of Trump administration members consumed his first two years in the Senate.

In Israel, President Isaac Herzog announced Saturday that opposition candidate Gadi Eisenkot would receive the first chance to assemble a governing coalition. The decision followed the October 27 elections, where neither Eisenkot nor Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu secured a clear majority. Representatives of most major parties recommended Eisenkot during discussions with Herzog. Netanyahu had appealed for a national unity government. He warned against a government involving what he called terrorist supporters, a phrase that appeared to refer to Arab-led parties.

Nvidia’s board announced Sunday that it would conduct an independent investigation into Chief Executive Jensen Huang. The probe follows reports that Huang was targeted by a foreign intelligence operation. The New York Times and the Financial Times reported on his relationship with Chinese businesswoman Alice Huang. The newspapers stated she had been recruited to spy for China. The two Huangs are not related. In an employee memo shared with NBC News, Huang acknowledged being unfaithful to his wife and hurting his family. Nvidia said it had no reason to believe national security or company secrets had been compromised. The board will review all available information.
