In a surprising turn of events, the House Republicans have announced their intention to hold their first impeachment hearing into Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. This contentious move comes as Mayorkas prepares to visit the southern border tomorrow to assess the prevailing conditions in Eagle Pass, Texas.
The ongoing border crisis has seen a recent influx of migrants crossing into the United States, and Mayorkas' visit comes at a critical juncture where border agents have been grappling with overwhelming numbers for months. While the recent group of migrants encountered in Eagle Pass was relatively small, consisting of approximately 50 individuals, it pales in comparison to the hundreds or even thousands that have crossed in the past.
