 GOP divided in rush to impeach Mayorkas
by Rebecca Beitsch and Rafael Bernal - 01/13/23 6:00 AM ET

Tensions are rising in the GOP House over how to tackle a topic many back enthusiastically: impeaching Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.

Republicans are largely unified in opposition to the secretary, but while some want to go full bore right away, others see fast-track impeachment as a mistake, warning that it’s important to build their case before the public.

“We made the argument that impeachment was rushed — the second impeachment — and I think that’s not who we are as a party,” said Rep. Michael McCaul (R-Texas), a former prosecutor, in reference to the second impeachment of former President Trump.

McCaul said it’s the committees of jurisdiction that should be leading the inquiry.

“We need to have hearings on this and we need to gather evidence and facts and, look, do I think the guy has done a terrible job? Yes,“ McCaul said. “Do I think he’s been derelict in his responsibilities? Yes. But we need to get all this together, and do it in a methodical way.”

In some corners, Republicans are lining up at the chance to impeach Mayorkas.

This should be a no-brainer.  The evidence that Mayorkas is violating his oath of office is abundant has been available to all for years now at the southern border.

I'd like to see him impeached too, but that should be about Priority No. 10 at this point.

The fact that this is being bantered around before attempts to reestablish the XL pipeline is not comforting.

... in the meantime start subpoenaing DHS officials and communications for immediate public oversight hearings.
