DHS Sec Mayorkas has been impeached with a vote of 214-213 in House, after the extremely conservative and strong border bill was set aside so The Former Guy could use it as a talking point and chaos agent in his campaign. If in a novel, would not have been believable.

Glad to hear @sophieperinot.bsky.social made it to her home away from home in York and is already settling in. Strangely and unseasonal blue skies to welcome her back for her personal annual writing (and UK enjoyment) retreat.
Someone is York-bound today with lots of #amwriting planned-- and some excellent side adventures as well. Look forward as always to the great stories and photos #histfict
Soon, dear readers, I will be UK bound. By this time next week, I will be settling in my “second city,” York, for a glorious 5-week stay. Keep an eye out here for photo updates. And keep your fingers crossed that I get a lot of writing done while there. #amwriting #historicalfiction #yorkuk
