House Stalls Impeachment Push Against Mayorkas Despite Republican Support

TL;DR Summary
The House of Representatives has voted to delay the impeachment of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, ending, for now, a Republican effort to remove him from office. The impeachment resolution, brought forward by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, accused Mayorkas of failing to secure the southern border and uphold the Constitution. While some prominent Republicans have supported the resolution, others have criticized it as a baseless attack. Impeaching a Cabinet official for policy decisions would be unprecedented, and the vote highlights a growing appetite among Republicans to redefine what constitutes impeachable offenses.
