They did it. The house officially voted to impeach homeland security secretary Alejandro Mayorkas by just one vote, 213 to 214, with 3 republicans voting not to impeach him. This is the first time since 1876 that a cabinet secretary has been impeached by the house.
Mayorkas’s handling of the border has caused immeasurable damage to the United States. Under his watch, million of migrants have crossed over the border and major cities have been overrun, unable to gather the resources to assist the rapid influx of migrants.
There is of course the issue of whether this will set precedent in the future. I think it’s fair to say that house republicans chose a worthy candidate to impeach, someone who did immeasurable damage to the nation, not just someone who did a bad job.
