TL;DR Summary

The House of Representatives has voted to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, with many Republicans blaming him for the surge of migrants at the US-Mexico border. President Biden criticized the move as unconstitutional partisanship, while the Senate, controlled by Democrats, is likely to reject the impeachment. The last cabinet member to face impeachment was in 1876, and the issue is a major focus ahead of the November election, with over 6.3 million migrants entering the US illegally since 2021.
