  1. 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.

  2. 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: msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/m

  3. @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.

    #Senate #GOP is no better than #Congress #GOP

  4. 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.

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

  12. 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

  13. #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.

  14. Oh look: Famous Russian Asset, Iowa's geriatric Senator Chuck Grassley is administering the oath to Patty Murray in the House's distracting, sham impeachment -- I wonder if Chuck is reading Cyrillic or english-language text. #mayorkas

  16. 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)

  23. 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.

  24. #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.

  29. 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.

  33. The #Republican Party isn’t interested in meaningfully addressing #immigration. They’ve been benefitting at the ballot box for decades for problems at the #border. They sabotaged immigration reform efforts by Presidents #Bush and #Obama.

    And finally their scheme was played out in real time for all to see when they torpedoed a bipartisan border bill because Donald #Trump didn’t want to give President #Biden a win. This charade will continue until voters stop rewarding immigration demagoguery and vote for solutions.

  36. This is the last time a Cabinet member was impeached. 1876. He was found to be taking kickbacks from a military trading post he'd assigned. And Mayorkas has done, what? Oh, passed policies they don't like. Got it.
