If the guy in charge of bank security does a terrible job and the bank is robbed blind he is gonna get hit. if the guy in charge of border security has made the most porous border in modern times he is gonna get hit. the only way they got to hit him is the impeachment so they will use it. Impeachment was already done over nothing burgers against Trump twice. pretending the genie wasn't let out of the bottle isn't going to stop the dems from impeaching whoever we put in."You're doing a morally bad job" isn't any better than "You're doing a bad job" as far as rising to the normal impeachment threshold, as far as I know.
Near as I can tell Impeachment is meant to cover political crimes. it is meant to cover nebulous things that aren't quite easy to nail down but most people can be convinced of. hence the high bar of needing the house then needing more than a majority of the senate. it used to be a political tool with a very high bar to consider going for. now it is a political tool to drag your political opposition over the coals with so long as you have a house majority.
Might be that this is just going to be partisan shitflinging of course. but that is the standard our congress operates on. at the very least if they are doing this they might not be drawing up an amnesty bill that is 80% foreign aid. Senate will not convict. couple R senators will likely cross over. nothing will change or happen other than tarring the opposition.
