In considering the articles of impeachment against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, it’s appropriate for each House member to ask: Is his central role in precipitating our unprecedented immigration disaster and destroying the security and well-being of the American people tolerable and consistent with the rule of law?
It’s not. The grounds for impeaching Mayorkas are overwhelming.
What’s at issue in this impeachment is not just a policy dispute over how best to enforce the nation’s immigration laws. Mayorkas is actively nullifying and undermining those laws.
It’s no excuse for Mayorkas to say he’s just following President Joe Biden’s orders. And it can’t be the case that the House’s only proper option in the face of the current lawlessness is to impeach the president.
Biden and his White House advisers never could carry out this…
