"US House Set to Decide on Impeachment of Homeland Security Secretary Mayorkas"

The US House of Representatives is set to vote on whether to advance or block a Republican charge to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas for allegedly failing to secure the US-Mexico border. The articles of impeachment, introduced by Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, accuse Mayorkas of violating his oath of office by not controlling the record numbers of migrants arriving at the border. This move comes as Congress faces a deadline to extend funding and avoid a government shutdown. While the Republican-controlled House is likely to impeach Mayorkas, he is expected to be found innocent after a trial in the Democrat-controlled Senate.
