SUMMARY: The House is set to vote on a resolution put forth by Republicans to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas over his handling of the southern border. The impeachment articles accuse Mayorkas of willful refusal to comply with the law and breach of public trust. Mayorkas and the Department of Homeland Security have strongly denied the accusations, calling them baseless. If the House approves the resolution, it would mark the second time a Cabinet official has been impeached in U.S. history.

SUMMARY: The Supreme Court has ruled that Donald Trump is entitled to some immunity from prosecution. Special counsel Jack Smith’s election interference case against Trump is expected to proceed with written arguments and witness testimonies before Judge Tanya Chutkan in Washington, DC.
