    Default House impeaches Alejandro Mayorkas, first Cabinet secretary to be impeached in almost

    https://www.cnn.com/2024/02/13/polit...ote/index.html

    Woo Hoo!

    The House of Representatives, by an extremely narrow margin, voted Tuesday to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, the first Cabinet secretary to be impeached in almost 150 years.

    The result came one week after the stunning loss House Republicans suffered when they last tried to impeach Mayorkas and GOP defections and an absence sank the initial floor vote, a move Republicans had hoped to use to spotlight the Biden administration’s handling of the southern border.

    The impeachment comes as House Republicans have faced building pressure from their base to hold President Joe Biden and his departments and agencies accountable over immigration and border security policies. House Republicans claim Mayorkas has committed high crimes and misdemeanors for his handling of the southern border, even though several constitutional experts have said the evidence does not reach that high bar.

    Now it goes to the Senate for a trial, which requires a 2/3 vote to be found guilty.
    Power always thinks...that it is doing God's service when it is violating all his laws.

    Does this have any more meaning than when they impeached trump?

    Nope. Just a bunch of chest-pounding.
