It's interesting to listen to US officials are still trying to grapple with Luigi Mangione's folk hero status.
Here's the Biden administration's Secretary of Homeland Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.

CW: USPol: Senate rejects bogus Mayorkas impeachment
Nice rebuttal of Republican claims that Senate Democrats somehow did something wrong by dropping the trumped-up, evidence-free impeachment charges against DHS Secretary Mayorkas: https://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/maddowblog/gop-makes-weak-pitch-senate-rejects-mayorkas-impeachment-articles-rcna148343

@GottaLaff Geez, even with such a ridiculous charge against #Mayorkas, the vote was still along party lines.
#Murkowski was close to crossing the line, but no cigar.

The Mayorkas impeachment was dismissed within hours of being taken up by the Senate by a vote of 51-49. McConnell did his best to prevent it from being dismissed, but he doesn't rule the Senate any more.

Senate Dismisses 1st of 2 #Impeachment Charges Against #Mayorkas
Now wasting more time going through the same painful process again.
Democrats moved as quickly as possible—despite #GOP #obstruction & #delay tactics— to dismiss the #unconstitutional article of impeachment accusing the #DHS sec of refusing to enforce #immigration #law.

@SenatorWicker the better question being: Why are Republicans TRIVIALIZING impeachment with this political errand in service to Donald Trump and The Kremlin?

Now its Florida's Republican Senator Rick Scott who defrauded Medicare, Medicaid resulting in the largest healthcare fraud settlement in U.S. history -- his turn to try to adjourn impeachment ..to drag this Fox News /Kremlin propaganda show out.
It'll fail. #mayorkas -

#Senate now going through nonsensical #Republican motions re #Mayorkas #impeachment that are all being rejected. There will likely be more before a real vote on Schumer’s point of order that article I is unconstitutional.

Mayorkas impeachment moves to Senate, where trial could end fast
House Republicans sent over articles of #impeachment against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro #Mayorkas on Tuesday afternoon,
kicking off what is likely to be a brief trial in the upper chamber that could conclude as soon as Wednesday.
Led by 11 impeachment managers appointed by Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), House Republicans have demanded a full trial,while Senate Democrats, who hold a 51-49 majority,
are planning to band together to dismiss or table the trial.At least one Republican
— Sen. Mitt #Romney (Utah)
— has said he plans to vote against a full trial.Most Senate Republicans, despite previously voicing concerns about the substance of the articles of impeachment against Mayorkas, have echoed the lower chamber’s calls for the Senate to adhere to the rules of impeachment and hold a trial.
Several others who have been critical of the impeachment have yet to stake out their position, including Sens. Susan Collins (R-Maine) and Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska)

The articles accuse #Mayorkas of "willful & systemic refusal to comply w/the #law" in enforcing #border policy & "breach public trust." After passage, #ChuckSchumer called the #impeachment …a "sham” & said #HouseRepublicans failed to demonstrate the Secy committed any impeachable offenses.
The #Senate is widely expected to acquit…. #Republicans in the upper chamber also expressed doubts Mayorkas' actions rise to "high crimes & misdemeanors" the standard set by the #Constitution for impeachments. -
#HouseRepublicans urged Schumer to "schedule a trial on the matter expeditiously."
#Schumer & his staff have promised to start the process of swearing senators in as jurors the day after the articles are received in the chamber. Washington Senator Patty Murray, the #Senate President Pro Tempore, will preside over the #Mayorkas #impeachment trial.

Federal agents have located a person of interest in over 100 #swatting #calls, which included calls targeting Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro #Mayorkas, Cybersecurity, Infrastructure and Security Agency Director Jen #Easterly and other senior Biden administration officials, according to law enforcement officials.
Officials say the person of interest lives in #Serbia; charges have not yet been filed, but sources say they could be filed soon.
The person of interest is alleged to have made phone calls targeting officials over the Christmas holidays, according to the sources.
Swatting is a dangerous and illegal scheme in which people try to harass or menace others by making false emergency calls in an attempt to prompt police to dispatch SWAT teams to the homes of public figures, celebrities or personal enemies.

Here's the letter I sent to Congresswoman Stephanie #Bice today about her ridiculous speech in support of her vote for impeaching Homeland Security Secretary #Mayorkas.
--------------------------------------------------
Congresswoman Bice,Your speech was an embarrassment.
The only problem with the border is that it exists and is keeping people who desperately want a better life out of the USA.

#HouseRepublicans' exasperation and #angst boiled over on Tuesday as votes to #impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro #Mayorkas and pass an Israel aid package went down in defeat.
Why it matters: It's part of a broader #pattern of House #RepublicanLeadership struggling to pass measures through the #narrowly divided chamber due in large part to their sharply #divided conference.

#House #Republican slams #GOP's “delusional” #MayorkasImpeachment
Rep #TomMcClintock (R-CA) came out swinging on Tues against the impeachment of Secy of #HomelandSecurity Mayorkas.
McClintock's position means #Republicans are down another vote as they try to impeach Mayorkas w/a razor-thin House majority. Rep #KenBuck (R-CO) is also opposed, w/several other Republicans undecided.

Just a reminder:
While the #House has been trying to impeach #Mayorkas on baseless accusations, Mayorkas has been providing technical expertise to the #Senate for the bipartisan #immigration bill.

…Constitutional experts & Dems have argued that #Republicans are abusing a tool adopted by the framers of the #Constitution to protect the country from despotic leadership to instead address a policy dispute. Two #law professors who testified before the cmte this month both stated that they did not see a constitutional basis for #impeachment.

His responsiveness to the #House’s oversight requests would not waiver, however “baseless” the proceedings, he added. “I assure you that your false accusations do not rattle me & do not divert me from the #law enforcement & broader #PublicService to which I remain devoted,” #Mayorkas wrote.

Still, the homeland security secretary cautioned it’s "too early" to tell whether the migrant surge has peaked since #Title42 expired.
