The Pentagon is emphasizing the development and deployment of anti-drone weapons and defenses, according to a memo from Secretary Pete Hegseth shared with NewsNation.

Retiring Representative Al Green (D-TX) announced Monday his intention to force a vote on articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump, accusing him of abusing his authority in handling Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection.

The focus on anti-drone technology comes amid growing concerns about the increasing use of drones by adversaries and the potential threats they pose to military and civilian infrastructure.

Green's push for impeachment underscores the ongoing political tensions surrounding Trump's presidency, particularly in relation to immigration policies and border security.
