"House Republicans' Impeachment Effort Against DHS Secretary Mayorkas Falters"

House Republicans failed to impeach Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas, with the final tally being 216 to 214. The impeachment effort faced opposition from both Democrats and some Republicans, and the last time a cabinet official was impeached was in 1876. The failed impeachment vote is seen as a politically motivated move by Republicans, with Democrats arguing that it is an attempt to distract from former President Donald Trump’s legal problems. The impeachment proceedings against Mr Mayorkas and President Joe Biden have failed to unearth any major allegations of wrongdoing, and the base of the Republican party is strongly motivated by the issue of immigration.
