Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer should put playing politics aside and follow Senate precedent by allowing a thorough trial of impeached Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas without delay. Failure to do so would put the New York Democrat’s slim 51-49 majority in further danger. Earlier this month, after a yearlong investigation, the House of […]
