"House Sends Historic Mayorkas Impeachment Articles to Senate for Trial"

TL;DR Summary
Impeachment articles against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas have been sent to the Senate, making him only the second Cabinet secretary to be impeached in U.S. history. The charges stem from his handling of the border, with Republicans accusing him of failing to enforce border laws amid a surge in migrants. While a full-scale trial is demanded by top Republicans, the chances of it happening are slim, with Democrats expected to pursue a committee hearing instead. Mayorkas, who has called the allegations "baseless," was on Capitol Hill earlier to push for more funding for the Department of Homeland Security.
