Constitutional law expert Alan Dershowitz said 'the Democrats are 100% correct in dismissing all the articles of impeachment' against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas 'that don't allege treason, bribery or other high crimes and misdemeanors.
Constitutional law expert Alan Dershowitz told Newsmax on Wednesday that "the Democrats are 100% correct in dismissing all the articles of impeachment" against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas "that don't allege treason, bribery or other high crimes and misdemeanors."
"The Republicans shouldn't be allowed to play politics with this by taking one position when Trump was impeached and an inconsistent position when Mayorkas is impeached," he continued. "If there are any charges that constitute high crimes and misdemeanors, fine, go forward with them, but strike all the charges that don't allege high crimes and misdemeanors. You can't just make up impeachable offenses.
Mayorkas' trial in the Senate could be over before arguments even begin, as Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., is expected to call votes to dismiss the articles of impeachment after senators are sworn in as jurors at midday Wednesday.
