WASHINGTON (AP) — Homeland Security Secretary Mayorkas was not, in fact, impeached by the House.
A border security package instantly collapsed in the Senate. And foreign aid for Ukraine as its fights Russia is stubbornly stalled.
The broken US. Congress failed in stunning fashion this week as Republicans in both the House and the Senate revolted in new and unimaginable ways against their own agenda. Lawmakers will try to do it all over again — as soon as next week.
“This is the mob rule right now in Congress — and I’m ready for mob rule. ... But it’s not a way to govern," said Republican Rep. Victoria Spartz of Indiana.
