House Rs could've spent this time negotiating a border deal to their liking with the Democrats but instead they chose to use it all on a sham impeachment they know isn't going to result in Mayorkas' removal. Really shows how much they truly care about the whole border "crisis".

Dems were smart to immediately kill it on arrival. Putting aside the obvious fact that this entire thing was a farce and a political stunt, and that neither article gave any solid argument for wrongdoing/corruption on Mayorkas' part, a full trial would’ve only benefited the Republicans, given public opinion on immigration, and so knocking it down at a point in time where most Americans are completely unaware of it happening is good.

I wonder if Republicans are sore that they didn't do this to Trump's trials.

Unlike in this situation, them doing so probably would've been politically damaging, given Trump's unpopularity and public support for both impeachments.

They almost certainly wouldn't have had the votes to dismiss in either instance.
