Watch: Senate dismisses Mayorkas impeachment charges

The Senate voted to deem both articles of impeachment against Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas as unconstitutional — cutting the trial short without any votes to convict or acquit. Both votes mostly adhered to party lines, aside from Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) voting present on the first article. Senate Democrats for months had repeatedly cast the impeachment against Mayorkas as a sham, forecasting their ultimate decision to dispose of the trial on Wednesday.
