The question of the day is “Will Chuck Schumer actually hold an impeachment trial for Alejandro Mayorkas?”
The House is sending two impeachment charges tomorrow, April 10, 2024, to Chuck Schumer, the Majority Leader in the Senate, who, in turn, decided to schedule the trial for the next day, Thursday, April 11th.
Yes, you read that right. Chuck Schumer scheduled the impeachment trial for the same day the Senate would receive the articles of impeachment. Or is it more like, “trial?”
However, each senator will be sworn in as jurors before anything can happen. Once they are sworn in, Democrats can either act on the side of justice and truth or they can protect their buddy.
Democrats don’t have to hold a trial on the Senate floor once everyone is sworn in. They can instead make a motion to table the charges, to move them to a committee (where they would likely die).
There is little hope that Schumer will actually allow a trial to happen. The most likely scenario is that the charges will be tabled completely or moved into a committee to disappear forever.
