Senate dismisses Mayorkas impeachment without trial
Quick Glance: Senate's Decision on Impeachment Charges Against Mayorkas
  • The Senate rejected the impeachment charges against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, halting the House Republicans' effort to impeach the Cabinet secretary over his management of the US-Mexico border.

  • With Democrats contending that the articles were unconstitutional, senators voted to dismiss both impeachment charges and conclude the trial.

  • Senate Republicans had called for a full impeachment trial after the House narrowly voted in February to impeach Mayorkas for his border actions.

  • Republicans argued that President Joe Biden was ineffective at the border, while Democrats suggested accepting a bipartisan Senate compromise instead of impeaching Mayorkas to reduce illegal immigrants.

Quick Glance: Trump Narrows Gap with Young Voters, Biden's Lead Shrinks - Survey Results
  • A new poll shows that former President Donald Trump continues to reduce his deficit with young voters compared to President Joe Biden.

  • In the Harvard Youth Poll released on Thursday, Biden leads among 18- to 29-year-olds with 45 percent compared to 37 percent for Trump, while 16 percent are undecided.

  • Biden holds a significant lead among likely voters who are non-white or female. He outperforms Trump by 47 points among college graduates and by 23 points among students.

  • The survey also indicates that Trump's younger supporters are much more enthusiastic about the former president than their peers who support Biden, and that Biden's approval rating among young adults is only at 31 percent.

Trump, Johnson Announce Redundant Proof of Citizenship Bill to Vote
Quick Glance: Focus on Support for Israel and Ukraine by Mike Johnson
  • House Speaker Mike Johnson is heavily advocating for support for Israel and Ukraine while trying to push a national security package through the House.

  • Johnson faces the challenge of juggling the Republican Party's divided support for Kyiv's defense while feeling the pressure to pass a comprehensive aid package for U.S. allies.

  • In his quest to find ways to promote funding for Ukraine, Johnson is engaging in discussions with the White House and former president Donald Trump. The divisive dynamic within the party and the urgency of the situation in Ukraine present a significant challenge for Johnson.

  • Johnson must craft a package that includes some policy wins for Republicans while also gaining Democratic approval. Despite concerns from some progressive Democrats regarding support for Israel, most Democratic lawmakers have rallied behind the Senate-passed package.

The dishonest ‘noncitizen voting’ issue melds Trump’s two favorite things
Quick Glance: Trump's Favorite Theme: Dishonest 'Noncitizen Voting'
  • House Speaker Mike Johnson's 'election security' event at Mar-a-Lago will focus on legislation targeting noncitizen voting.

  • Despite existing bans and rare noncitizen votes, the debate aims to boost Trump's presidential candidacy.

  • Laws from 1996 prohibit noncitizen voting in federal and state elections, yet some municipalities in some states allow it.

  • Trump and allies falsely claim noncitizens vote in elections, while data shows minimal incidents. The debate serves as a political maneuver and distracts from actual election issues.

Quick Glance: RFK Jr. Consultant Terminated for Comments on Removing Biden
  • Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s independent presidential campaign has ended its contract with a consultant who urged people to vote for him to 'get rid of Biden', even if it means electing Donald Trump.

  • Campaign manager Amaryllis Fox announced the decision in response to a supporter's request to distance the campaign from consultant Rita Palma.

  • Palma misrepresented her role in the campaign, leading to an immediate termination of her contract, as stated by Fox.

  • The consultant falsely claimed to be the New York State Director of the campaign at an event unaffiliated with the campaign, resulting in her dismissal.

  • A surge in border crossings in Eagle Pass at the end of last year prompted drastic measures by the Texas police and National Guard troops.

  • Abbott's political maneuvers regarding immigration have put Biden in a tight spot and sparked a debate on the effectiveness of the immigration system.

  • Abbott's actions were supported by other border defenders, leading to evasive movements and a global increase in immigration.

  • The overload of the US system and political power struggles have triggered a humanitarian crisis, while Biden and Trump each defend their stances on immigration.
