Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, R-La., speaks during a press conference after the Senate ended impeachment proceedings against Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas at the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday. The Senate, which voted along party lines, dismissed the two charges accusing Mayorkas of failing to enforce immigration laws and breaching the public trust as unconstitutional because they did not meet the bar of a high crime or misdemeanor.
