"Senate Prepares for Impeachment Trial of Mayorkas Amid Border Security Concerns"
TL;DR
The Senate is expected to spend little time on the impeachment charges against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, with Senate leaders likely seeking a quick dismissal. Democrats are expected to try to dismiss the trial completely, and if they can't, they may opt to form a trial committee. If the Senate were to proceed to a trial, senators would be forced to sit through weeks of proceedings, but many senators from both parties have expressed doubts about the value of such a trial.
