Both articles of impeachment against Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas were deemed unconstitutional by the Senate on Wednesday in a party-line vote.

Both articles of impeachment against Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas were deemed unconstitutional by the Senate on Wednesday in a party-line vote.

The first of two articles of impeachment alleged Mayorkas engaged in the "willful and systemic refusal to comply with the law" regarding the southern border in his capacity as DHS secretary. The second claimed Mayorkas had breached public trust.

Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., proposed a point of order declaring the article unconstitutional, to which the majority of senators agreed following several failed motions by Republicans.

The article was deemed unconstitutional by a vote of 51-48, with Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, voting present.

But, but, McConnell told us that it was impossible to avoid an impeachment trial when it came to Trump’s 2 impeachments.

Democrat/Communists are truly exceptional when it comes to protecting their own ... but only for those who religiously toe the Democrat/Communist Party line lest they be politically annhilated.

Then again, standing up to and defeating at every turn the "opposition party" is no big challenge ...

Notice how they didn’t chase menendez out of the Senate like the house did to George Santos which could have mattered with votes like this. The communists never surrender power willingly.

The dems play hardball, the Republicans just flounder around. One thing to remember about the Deep State, which includes a majority of Congress, is there’s no lie they won’t tell or law they won’t break to protect and enhance their power.

It’s okay for Democrats to impeach. It’s not okay for Republicans to do so. Democrats make the rules. Republicans have to obey.

If it’s unconstitutional does it still exist.

Bullshit alert in action just another democrat and rino cover up job.

Waders were returned back to the store room after the vote was taken.

I knew it would die in the Senate without so much as a wimper.

We truly are in a civil war. The only thing so far unique about it is that he primarily weapons are political power and lawfare.

Thank you for referencing that article Carriage Hill.

"Senate Democrats kill both articles of impeachment against DHS Secretary Mayorkas."


It's always been up to us ordinary Democratic and Republican Trump supporters to effectively "impeach and remove" corrupt lawmakers who are protecting Biden and Mayorkas by voting lawmakers out of office in November.

Now the Senate Dems have agreed that unlimited border crossing is proper and preferred.
They all have to go. Stolen elections have consequences.

Look how united they are. The Repuke Senate had 1 week show trial hammering the President who was feom their party. How much i can’t stand the Repuke party is hard to put into words. Now the speaker, who is total trash, will move every mountain he can to give Biden all his priorities. Sickening.
