If you read this article on Turley as witness, in conjunction with the Feb 6 delta #3835, all the Mayorkas commotion gets a bit of clarity.

Impeachment goal was to delay?

Witness requests meant to delay?

What Turley argues is that basically Mayorkas is unimpeachable because he's just carrying out orders--Biden is who you'd need to impeach because he sets the policy.

“There is also no current evidence that he is corrupt or committed an impeachable offense,” Turley wrote, nodding to the one Cabinet secretary impeached in the 1870s after being accused of taking kickbacks.

“He can be legitimately accused of effectuating an open border policy, but that is a disagreement on policy that is traced to the President,” Turley added.

“I do not believe that the current evidence would support articles of impeachment that is something that an inquiry has to establish,” he said. “But I also believe that the House has passed the threshold for an impeachment inquiry into the conduct of President Biden.”

Don't see how that interpretation makes sense though. Imagine if POTUS instructed Mayorkas to murder Americans and he did--seems pretty clear they'd both be impeachable but perhaps there's some legal subtlety here that I'm missing?

But anyway, some food for thought and some seemingly relevant delta goodness to go with it.
