<p>A panel of the GOP-led <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/u-s-house-of-representatives" target="_blank" rel="noopener">House</a> released on Sunday two articles of <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/impeachment" target="_blank" rel="noopener">impeachment</a> against Homeland Security Secretary <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/alejandro-mayorkas" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Alejandro Mayorkas</a> over his <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/biden-shatters-record-with-historic-number-of-illegal-aliens-encountered-in-december" target="_blank" rel="noopener">handling of</a> the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/border-crisis" target="_blank" rel="noopener">border crisis</a>.</p>
<p>The <a href="https://homeland.house.gov/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Articles-of-Impeachment.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">first article says</a> Mayorkas has &#8220;willfully and systemically refused to comply with Federal immigration laws,&#8221; and the second claims the secretary &#8220;breached the public trust&#8221; by making false statements and &#8220;knowingly obstructed lawful oversight&#8221; of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).</p>
<p>Members of the Homeland Security Committee are <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/house-committee-picks-date-to-consider-mayorkas-impeachment-articles" target="_blank" rel="noopener">scheduled to meet</a> on Tuesday morning to consider the articles of impeachment. If one or both articles pass through the panel, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/speaker-mike-johnson-house-republicans-to-impeach-mayorkas-as-soon-as-next-week" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA)</a> said the House would vote on whether to impeach Mayorkas <a href="https://nypost.com/2024/01/26/news/speaker-johnson-vows-mayorkas-impeachment-vote-soon-as-possible/?utm_source=twitter&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_campaign=nypost" target="_blank" rel="noopener">&#8220;as soon as possible thereafter.&#8221;</a></p>
<p>&#8220;Having exhausted all other options to hold Secretary Mayorkas accountable, it is unmistakably clear that Congress must exercise its constitutional duty and impeach him,&#8221; Chairman Mark Green (R-TN) <a href="https://twitter.com/RepMarkGreen/status/1751620055773639156" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> in a post to X on Sunday.</p>

<p>&mdash; Rep. Mark Green (@RepMarkGreen) <a href="https://twitter.com/RepMarkGreen/status/1751620055773639156?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">January 28, 2024</a></p></blockquote>
<p>House Republicans face a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/slim-house-gop-majority-gets-narrower" target="_blank" rel="noopener">tight margin</a> as they contend with vacancies and absences within their own ranks, but Green said last weekend that he believes there will be <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/homeland-security-chair-says-we-have-the-votes-to-impeach-mayorkas" target="_blank" rel="noopener">enough support</a> to ultimately impeach Mayorkas when it comes to a House floor vote. Still, the effort faces long odds in the Democrat-controlled Senate.</p>
<p>Rep. Bennie Thompson (R-MS), the top Democrat on the Homeland Security Committee, encouraged the House to reject what he called a &#8220;sham&#8221; resolution. &#8220;What is glaringly missing from these articles is any real charge or even a shred of evidence of high crimes or misdemeanors — the Constitutional standard for impeachment,&#8221; he added in a statement on Sunday.</p>
<p>When pressed on &#8220;Fox News Sunday&#8221; on the prospect of the impeachment articles going nowhere in the Senate, Rep. Michael McCaul (R-TX) said &#8220;I think it&#8217;s important we respond to the American people&#8221; after pinning millions of border encounters, including people on the terrorist watchlist, and fentanyl deaths on Mayorkas.</p>
<p>There is a bipartisan appetite in the House for changing the status quo, even if there is disagreement on how to address the border crisis amid <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/fueled-unprecedented-border-crossings-record-3-million-cases-106378442" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a surge in crossings</a> and blue cities around the country getting <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/illinois-governor-complains-blue-cities-suffering-abbott-bussing-migrants" target="_blank" rel="noopener">overwhelmed with migrants</a>. Fourteen House Democrats recently <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/14-house-democrats-vote-to-denounce-biden-admins-open-borders-policies" target="_blank" rel="noopener">broke ranks</a> and joined with most Republicans in voting to denounce the Biden administration&#8217;s “open-borders policies.&#8221;</p>
<p>Several <a href="https://homeland.house.gov/2024/01/28/media-advisory-homeland-security-committee-markup-of-mayorkas-impeachment-articles-2/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">interim reports have been released</a> during the Homeland Security Committee&#8217;s probe into Mayorkas, and hearings <a href="https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/house-gop-is-moving-swiftly-toward-mayorkas-impeachment" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrapped up</a> earlier this month. Members of the Senate are working to <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/mcconnell-says-border-security-talks-face-quandary-as-the-politics-have-changed-report" target="_blank" rel="noopener">hash out a border deal</a>, with the help of Mayorkas, while the impeachment effort comes to a resolution.</p>

<p>DHS <a href="https://www.dhs.gov/xlibrary/opa/24_0128_OPA_memo.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">released a memo</a> to reporters on Sunday that argued Mayorkas has &#8220;upheld and enforced&#8221; border security and immigration laws and seeks to refute &#8220;false allegations&#8221; of lying about operational control during testimony and dereliction of duty.</p>
<p>&#8220;This markup is just more of the same political games from House Homeland Security Committee (CHS) Republicans. They don’t want to fix the problem; they want to campaign on it,&#8221; the memo said.</p>
<p>&#8220;That’s why they have undermined efforts to achieve bipartisan solutions and ignored the facts, legal scholars and experts, and even the Constitution itself in their quest to baselessly impeach Secretary Mayorkas,&#8221; it added. &#8220;This farce of an impeachment is a distraction from other vital national security priorities and the work Congress should be doing to actually fix our broken immigration laws.&#8221;</p>
