Overview
- Mayorkas, the first Latino and immigrant to lead the Department of Homeland Security, is targeted for his handling of the U.S.-Mexico border crisis.
- Critics, primarily from the GOP, argue Mayorkas' policies have led to a surge in illegal immigration, with no consequences for those crossing the border.
- Supporters defend Mayorkas, highlighting his commitment to public service and efforts to implement humane immigration policies.
- The impeachment process, unprecedented for a policy dispute, reflects deep divisions over immigration enforcement in the U.S.
- Mayorkas remains focused on his duties, dismissing the impeachment allegations as 'baseless' and preparing to defend himself if necessary.
