english.elpais.com/usa/2024-04-17/senate-dismisses-two-articles-of-impeachment-against-homeland-security-secretary-ends-trial.html
Quick Glance: Senate's Decision on Impeachment Charges Against Mayorkas

- 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.
