House Republicans vote for impeachment of Alejandro Mayorkas

In a closely watched move, the impeachment of Alejandro Mayorkas, the Secretary of Homeland Security, now hinges on the math. It is anticipated that two House Republicans, Ken Buck of Colorado and Tom McClintock of California, will vote against the impeachment.

McClintock, expressing his reservations, argues that Republicans are pushing the boundaries of impeachment. He notes that this approach goes against the principles established by the American founders, who specifically rejected the idea of political disputes leading to impeachment. This assertion implies that political disagreements alone cannot be grounds for removing an official from office.
