Alejandro Mayorkas has officially been impeached in the House of Representatives by a vote of 214 to 213! Mayorkas is the first cabinet secretary to be impeached in nearly 150 years and the first sitting cabinet secretary in history to be impeached!
New York Times reports,
The United States House of Representatives voted narrowly on Tuesday to impeach Alejandro N. Mayorkas, the homeland security secretary, in a precedent-shattering vote that charged him with willfully refusing to enforce border laws and breaching the public trust.
In a 214 to 213 vote, Republicans barreled past the solid opposition of Democrats and reservations in their own ranks to make Mr. Mayorkas the first sitting cabinet secretary in U.S. history to be impeached.
House Republicans are expected to vote on a historic resolution to finally impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas tonight.
