"Republican Lawmakers Push for Immediate Senate Reconvening for Mayorkas Impeachment Trial"

TL;DR
Several Senate Republicans are urging Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer to reconvene the Senate immediately for an impeachment trial of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas over his handling of the migrant crisis at the southern border. The House voted to impeach Mayorkas in a tight 214-213 vote, making him the first Cabinet secretary to be impeached by the U.S. Congress since 1876. Republicans argue that Mayorkas ignored his duty to protect the country and should be held accountable, while Democrats accuse the GOP of trampling on the Constitution for political gain.
