"House GOP Initiates Impeachment Effort Against Secretary Mayorkas Over Immigration"

Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) has indicated that the expected impeachment inquiry into Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is part of a broader examination of the Biden administration's border policies. During an interview, Jordan emphasized that any impeachment decision will be fact-driven, following the announcement of upcoming impeachment hearings against Mayorkas by the House Homeland Security Committee. The hearings are a response to what some GOP members describe as Mayorkas's "dereliction of duty" in managing the U.S. southern border situation. Jordan, along with other Republicans, visited the border to underscore their concerns.

"Jim Jordan Sparks Chaos in House Hearing Over Whistleblower Testimony"

During a House hearing on the "weaponization" of the FBI, Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan denied Democrats' requests to receive the testimony of one of the GOP's self-described "whistleblowers," prompting Rep. Dan Goldman to confront him with the actual rules. Jordan claimed that the minority party isn't entitled to all evidence collected from whistleblowers, but Democrats argued that the law has not determined they are whistleblowers. Democrats have also questioned the credibility of the so-called whistleblowers, noting that one of them had his FBI security clearance revoked after expressing support for the Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection.
