that, i mean, we talked about this impeachment that they wanted to of the homeland security secretary mayorkas. there's a lot that doesn't make a lot of sense about that, but it's going to the senate is this something that even if it doesn't go anywhere, still could be damaging to the president and to the biden administration. >> i mean, i think immigration has been a very difficult political issue for the president. and so to the extent that it's in the news, i think that's a problem for the white house. so i think that's part of the reason that republicans did this impeachment. it's a way to keep the crisis at the border in the news that said, the senate is busy right now, they have a number of things you need to do this, this renewal of the foreign intelligence surveillance act. if the house acts on a foreign aid bill, the senate will have to act on it too, because the house probably won't pass exactly what the senate already passed. it's not just democrats in the senate who are eager to get onto other things. you have a few republicans in the senate who have been irritated about the impeac

now in 2024 what has homeland security alejandro mayorkas done to merit impeachment? republicans say he hasn't done enough to stop illegal border crossings. that is not grounds for impeachment. in reality, republicans are the one who sabotaged border protection just a couple months ago, a fact that dan goldman printed out earlier today. >> unfortunately, the republicans have put politics over our border security. they want chaos in order to win an election rather than to solve the problems. there was a policy bill, there was a policy change that would have significantly addressed the problems at the border and instead you all on the other side of the aisle sabotaged it where you baselessly impeached this year terry who is trying to solve our problems at the southern border because you want to win it. you don't want to solve the problem. >> a politically motivated faceless impeachment vote congrats to republicans in congress for accomplishing that. don't be full by the play of unity because this is pretty much the only thing republicans managed to accomplish in this 11

house republicans delivered two articles of impeachment against homeland security secretary alejandro mayorkas to the senate. they allege that mr mayorkas failed to enforce us immigration laws, kicking off a trial in the democratic—controlled senate, which is expected to dismiss or table the charges later this week. let's talk about all this now with our panel. with me in studio is rodney davis, former republican us congressman who represented the state of illinois. i'm also joined by stephanie murphy, a former democratic us congresswoman who represented florida. lots to talk about and thank you forjoining us. a high—stakes week on capitol hill. rodney, let's start with the foreign aid bill. it's now been divided up — do you think that boosts its chance of approval, or do you think there will still be sticking points — with the freedom caucus over ukraine, for example? there is always a chance for the freedom caucus you have issues with any piece of legislation that comes up, whether to gather or split into parts. mikejohnson is one of the nicest people i ever had a chance to speak wit

she is the one who led this efforts against secretary may arcus -- mayorkas. there is no action other than the reading of these articles. there are two articles of impeachment. the first is charging the secretary with refusal to comply with the law. the second is breach of public trust. we've talked about those here on air before. the biden administration and democrats, as well as a couple of republicans, say that there is no proof, that this is a cabinet secretary doing his job, and to that point, what did the secretary say today? he was on capitol hill in a budget hearing and did not talk about impeachment. when we heard from the secretary, he has an agency that needs more resources and needs more guidance from congress on how to secure the border. geoff: that is in the immigration bill that republicans blocked. many of us remember covering that trump impeachment trial, both of them. how will this be different from the trump trials? lisa: it will be faster. this is what we expect tomorrow. the senate will convene shortly after lunchtime. they are required to
