Since when are cabinet positions impeachable?

Where does it say that in the Constitution?

I think we should all know, and hopefully they will talk about that, impeachment is for treason , bribery and high crimes and misdemeanors.

I know Hegseth is a controversial figure , but just because the liberals don’t like him , that does not make a basis for impeachment. What particular crimes would they allege that he has committed as secretary of defense?
