## Key points

- The article calls for Trump to appoint a legally expert press secretary.
- It predicts impeachment proceedings involving Trump and Hegseth.
- It portrays Massie’s Hegseth effort as a bid for attention.

## Summary

The opinion article argues that President Trump should appoint a press secretary with strong legal credentials, ideally someone who has clerked for the Supreme Court, as Congress is expected to pursue impeachment proceedings against Trump and Pete Hegseth. It says disputes over presidential powers will feature prominently and that a spokesperson versed in relevant court rulings and history would be better equipped to answer the press.

The article uses outgoing Republican congressman Thomas Massie’s effort to impeach Hegseth as an example of what it describes as attention-seeking politics. It says Massie lost his primary by nearly 10 per cent, credits him with helping remove hemp from the federal controlled-substances definition in the 2018 Farm Bill, and notes his later campaign to release the Epstein files. The supplied text ends mid-sentence, so it does not include the article’s full argument.
