Republicans suddenly silent on impeaching Mayorkas
Anna Giaritelli

Republicans stamped a bull's-eye on Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas when they took the House in January, but those long-threatened impeachment efforts have died off in recent weeks as the party pivots to legislating.

The GOP made removing Mayorkas from the Department of Homeland Security a front-and-center issue in the lead-up to last November’s midterm elections and continued those calls into this year, with two members introducing articles of impeachment.

But since early March, the fanfare has died down, and the party’s focus has shifted from blaming someone for the border crisis to taking steps to end the chaos at the U.S.-Mexico border, with few GOP aides and members willing to acknowledge the lack of action on impeachment publicly.

Two GOP aides, including one in leadership, told the Washington Examiner on Monday that the party was, in fact, focusing its immediate efforts on passing legislation on immigration and border security.

Good.

It will be more likely finding a living unicorn than getting 67 senators to convict him anyway.

"It will be more likely finding a living unicorn than getting 67 senators to convict him anyway."

Removing him was NEVER the objective. Surely you realized this?

The reason for impeachment was to EXPOSE him and what his department is doing.
