US Senate drops impeachment charges against immigration secretary
The U.S. Senate has ended the trial to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas for his handling of the U.S.-Mexico border crisis. The articles of impeachment were dismissed as Democrats argued that they were unconstitutional and failed to meet the constitutional burden of high crimes and misdemeanors. For an analysis into what the dropped charges mean for Secretary Mayorkas, VOA’s Esther Githui-Ewart spoke to VOA’s Paul Ndiho live from the United States Capitol.
