Good morning, everyone. I'm playbook co-author Ryan Lizza. It's Tuesday, February 6th. Here's what's

driving the day. All signs are that Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas will be impeached by the end of today.

In a final salvo yesterday, DHS lawyers sent a 38-page letter slamming the vote as, quote,

a radical and dangerous step in violation of the Constitution.

But the House Rules Committee sent two impeachment articles to the floor, nonetheless,

and the only confirmed Republican opponent right now is Representative Ken Buck of Colorado,

meaning GOP leaders appear to have the votes. Johnson reportedly has a list of impeachment

managers drawn up, but as Rachel reported earlier in the week, we expect there

not to be a trial in the Senate and for this to die in committee.

Speaking of the Senate, the bipartisan supplemental agreement continues to draw criticism

from Republicans. This morning, Politico's Burgess Everett reports that Senator John Barrasso,

the number three Republican in the Senate, will oppose the border deal. I cannot vote for this bill.

The senator tells Politico in a statement, Americans will turn to the upcoming election to end

the border crisis, he adds. Barassau has endorsed Donald Trump

and is the most conservative of the trio of Johns, the others are Thune and Cornyn, hoping to

succeed Mitch McConnell, so a very significant new Republican senator speaking out against

the bipartisan deal. The House will tee up its response

to Biden's foreign aid request today with a vote on a standalone Israel bill that President Biden

last night threatened to veto. Joining me to talk about the border deal in the Senate and the fate of aid to Israel, Ukraine,

and Taiwan is Politico-C congressional reporter and the primary author of Inside Congress,

Daniela Diaz.
