.RepAndyBiggsAZ, eyeing speaker's gavel, leads DHS Sec. Mayorkas impeachment charge
Biggs, who is gunning for the speaker's gavel, led several dozen lawmakers to demand President Joe Biden's pick to oversee the border be removed from office on the basis that he"has committed high crimes and misdemeanors.
He added:"Second, he may have lied to Congress when he testified that he was maintaining operational control of the border. "Congressman Chip Roy of Texas literally showed him the definition — the one I read to you earlier — and Secretary Mayorkas doubled down that he felt the border was secure."The third illegal action, Biggs said, was how Mayorkas had not detained illegal immigrants and instead released more than 1 million people into the U.S.
In November, McCarthy and more centrist Republicans, including Texas border Rep. Tony Gonzales, called for Mayorkas to resign or face investigations by GOP-controlled House committees in 2023.The results of the investigations, McCarthy said, could lead to impeachment proceedings if investigators determine any wrongdoing.
