House Republicans Push to Impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas

Mayorkas Defends His Handling of Border Crisis, Calls Impeachment Allegations 'Baseless'

House Republicans are pushing to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, accusing him of refusing to follow immigration law and breaching public trust.
The House Homeland Security Committee is meeting to advance two articles of impeachment against Mayorkas, with a full House vote expected to follow.
Mayorkas has defended his handling of the border crisis, calling the allegations against him 'baseless' and 'false'.
Legal experts and some Republicans have questioned the validity of the impeachment case, arguing that policy disagreements are not a basis for impeachment.
Despite the impeachment proceedings, it is unlikely that Mayorkas will lose his job as the Democratic-controlled Senate has shown no interest in pursuing his conviction.
