They want to tie up the senate by forcing it to sit as an impeachment court.

That was my thought, however, the House would have to bring the articles/vote on it first before it can go to the Senate.

And the Senate can vote it down in an hour.

“They want to tie up the senate by forcing it to sit as an impeachment court.”

That was all explored and discussed the last time. The Senate can take up the impeachment bill, mull it around for a few hours, and dismiss it. The House cannot command the Senate.

...which would take Harris off the campaign trail.

Most Americans will see it for what it is.
A political stunt. Nothing more.
The Senate would not even take it up.

The turtle and the rest of the Senate pubbies would dismiss any charges out of hand and it would drive even Suzy Q and the Alaskan Cow to vote for ACB.

Go ahead, make my day.

The Senate would vote on the day that happened to confirm, even before any Senator got a chance to ax ACB a single question.

They can vote on it 5 minutes after receiving it and dispose of it.
