On Thursday, June 25, 2026, Linda McMahon became the first U.S. education secretary to be the target of impeachment proceedings in what is being viewed as a largely symbolic action. Democrats have also introduced articles of impeachment against multiple members of President Donald Trump’s cabinet, including Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F.

In fact, such attempts have rarely succeeded.
