"House Impeaches Homeland Security Secretary Mayorkas, What's Next?"
Republican members of the House have impeached Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro N. Mayorkas, triggering a series of rituals that date back to the impeachment of President Andrew Johnson in 1868. The articles of impeachment will be delivered to the Senate, which will then schedule a trial to consider evidence, hear witnesses, and ultimately vote to acquit or convict Mayorkas. The House speaker will name impeachment managers to serve as the prosecution team in the Senate trial.
