Utah Republican Sens. Mike Lee and Mitt Romney at odds over impeachment of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.
Utah Sen. Mitt Romney says Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has not committed high crimes or misdemeanors
“Secretary Mayorkas is very much alive and still the Secretary of Homeland Security,” Lee said dryly. “Why don’t they want to hold the trial given that we have a sworn duty consistent with our oath to uphold the Constitution to conduct this trial?” “This is certainly the most violent act undertaken at the United States Senate, violence against the institution of the Senate and its time-honored traditions since November of 2013 when Harry Reid deployed the ‘nuclear option,’” Lee said. “In a sense, this is even more serious.”
Romney would not say whether he would vote to table or dismiss the articles of impeachment when they are delivered to the Senate.
