"Senate Speedily Rejects Impeachment Charges Against Mayorkas"

Senate leaders are planning to swiftly reject the articles of impeachment against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, aiming for a quick trial that could be over in just a couple of days. Democrats hope to prevent House Republicans from turning the chamber into a political spectacle and are confident they have enough votes to acquit Mayorkas, with Senator Chuck Schumer aiming for quick action beginning on Feb. 28. The charges, which accuse Mayorkas of refusing to enforce immigration laws and breaching the public trust regarding the U.S. border with Mexico, are seen as a political stunt by some Democrats and are expected to be dismissed summarily.
