Alejandro Mayorkas Impeached , by House Republicans.
The Homeland Security secretary has been impeached for "willful and systemic refusal to comply with the law" when it comes to the enforcement of border policy, NPR reports.
Mayorkas was impeached
by a House vote of 214-213.
Three Republicans sided with all Democrats
against impeachment.
.
A cabinet member has not been
impeached since William Belknap in 1876.
A cabinet member has not been
impeached since William Belknap in 1876.
It is not likely that the Senate will
convict Mayorkas or that he will be
removed from his position, NPR reports.
.
DHS spokesperson Mia Ehrenberg said that the impeachment was conducted "without a shred of evidence or legitimate constitutional grounds.".
House Republicans will be remembered
by history for trampling on the Constitution
for political gain rather than working to
solve the serious challenges at our border, DHS spokesperson Mia Ehrenberg, via statement.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer called the impeachment "a new low for House Republicans.".
This sham impeachment effort is another
embarrassment for House Republicans, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, via statement.
The one and only reason for this
impeachment is for Speaker Johnson
to further appease Donald Trump, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, via statement.
History will not look kindly on
House Republicans for their blatant
act of unconstitutional partisanship that
has targeted an honorable public servant
in order to play petty political games, President Joe Biden, via statement
The House passed a stopgap funding bill to avert a government shutdown just hours before the midnight deadline. The bill extends funding through March 2025, providing disaster relief and farm aid, but excludes the debt limit suspension demanded by President-elect Trump. The bill now moves to the Senate for approval before being sent to President Biden. Speaker Mike Johnson and other Republicans worked to secure Democratic support, while Trump’s opposition led to changes in the bill's provisions.

The U.S. Pentagon and President Biden have strongly condemned the International Criminal Court's (ICC) decision to issue arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant. The ICC's charges against the Israeli leaders, including crimes against humanity and war crimes, have sparked a wave of criticism from Israel and the U.S., with both sides rejecting the court's jurisdiction. The ICC's move follows Senate threats of sanctions against the court, adding further diplomatic tension.

As the deadline to prevent a government shutdown rapidly approaches, former President Donald Trump has dismissed a bipartisan agreement between Republicans and Democrats. Trump pushed for a controversial new deal that includes a three-month government funding extension and a two-year suspension of the debt ceiling, a proposal that was swiftly rejected by the House of Representatives. With crucial public services and federal workers at risk, Congress must act fast to avoid a shutdown. Will lawmakers come together in time to avert this crisis just days before Christmas?

In a controversial moment during his trip to Angola, President Joe Biden dodged questions from reporters regarding his recent decision to pardon his son, Hunter Biden. The pardon, covering Hunter’s actions over the past 11 years, has sparked significant political backlash, particularly from critics who point out the contradiction with Biden’s previous statements. Despite earlier promises not to intervene in Hunter's legal matters, Biden reversed his stance and granted the pardon. As reporters attempted to raise the issue during a meeting with Angolan President João Lourenço, Biden laughed off their questions, turning to the Angolan delegation and quipping, "Welcome to America." His refusal to address the matter has further fueled the controversy, casting a shadow over his final days in office.

In a fiery address at Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest, Donald Trump responded to the growing rumors and online trolling that labeled Elon Musk as a potential “President Musk.” Trump firmly stated that Musk cannot run for president due to the U.S. Constitution's natural-born citizen requirement. But is there more behind Trump’s comments than just the Constitution? In this video, we dive deep into why Trump feels threatened by Musk's political influence, his growing presence in conservative circles, and the billionaire's immense popularity among voters. We also explore the impact of Musk's business dealings with foreign governments and its implications on national security. Is Trump truly secure in his leadership, or is he feeling the pressure from a rising political star?
