'Both Parties Are One Family' Sparks Public Outrage; Democratic Collective Absence Stalls Impeachment Motion

According to PolyBeats monitoring, in Washington on November 10, the U.S. House of Representatives passed a procedural motion by a vote of 211 to 204, referring the "resolution to impeach Defense Secretary Hegseth" to the Republican-led Judiciary Committee. Since the committee chairman can decline to schedule the resolution, the chances of it returning to the full House during this congressional session are now very slim.

On the prediction market Polymarket, the probability of "Hegseth leaving office within this year" peaked at 69% a week ago; it currently stands at only 12%.

This account has a 44.7% win rate across 293 markets traded in the politics sector, with PnL +$1.6M and ROI +16.1%. The amount invested in this trade was 0.68 times its average investment in this sector.

In this vote, 11 Democratic lawmakers were absent, resulting in a margin of only 7 votes, which sparked heated discussion online. The account The Hormuz Letter posted that these 11 individuals "have all received fairly substantial pro-Israel AIPAC funding."

Since one of the Democrats' core campaign slogans during the midterm elections was "reset relations with Israel," this Democratic absence has once again brought the narrative that "both parties are controlled by Israel" to the forefront, sparking discussion among netizens.
