republicans did not accuse mayorkas of any specific criminal conduct. joining us now democratic member of the house homeland security and oversight committees, congressman dan goldman of new york. his latest op-ed is entitled "my republican colleagues are wasting the senate's time." so what do you suggest should happen moving forward here if there isn't anything specific being put on the table as an impeachment crime committed by the secretary? it seems like almost a vacant exercise. >> yeah, that's right. i mean, if this were in a criminal court setting, this would be an indictment that would be dismissed before trial because it does not state a crime, and you nailed it on its head there, mika, the fact is that even if you agree with what is alleged in the articles of impeachment for which there's no evidence to support, you still have not alleged a high crime or misdemeanor. you have not shown at all any personal benefit that the secretary has derived from any of his actions. and the republicans can point to no prior impeachment where that has not bee
