Joe Biden is beginning to figure out that the free and easy days he enjoyed with Nancy Pelosi running Congress are over.
The new GOP majority is gearing up to make up for two years of lack of oversight.
And now Kevin McCarthy asked a brutal question that will have Joe Biden pressing the panic button.
Speaker Kevin McCarthy announced he would fully support an investigation into Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas that could result in articles of impeachment.
“Should that person stay in their job?” McCarthy began.
“Well, I raised the issue they shouldn’t. The thing that we can do is we can investigate, and then that investigation could lead to an impeachment inquiry,” McCarthy declared.
Joe Biden handpicked Alejandro Mayorkas to implement his open borders agenda.
Mayorkas got right to work issuing a memo ordering federal authorities to ignore federal law and refuse to deport illegal aliens.
Mayorkas also oversaw the administration’s effort to end the “Remain in Mexico” protocols and Title 42.
All of these actions resulted in the largest illegal alien invasion in American history.
Millions of illegal aliens — equivalent to the population of South Carolina — poured into the country once Joe Biden and Mayorkas sent the signal that the border was wide open.
The Biden administration tried to gaslight the American people into thinking Mayorkas actually cared about border security.
“Secretary Mayorkas is proud to advance the noble mission of this Department, support its extraordinary workforce, and serve the American people. The Department will continue our work to enforce our laws and secure our border, while building a safe, orderly, and humane immigration system,” a statement from Homeland Security spokeswoman Marsha Espinosa read. “Members of Congress can do better than point the finger at someone else; they should come to the table and work on solutions for our broken system and outdated laws, which they have not updated in over 40 years.”
Texas Congressman Pat Fallon introduced articles of impeachment against Mayorkas and explained that if Mayorkas felt the charges were unfair he could explain himself during the impeachment trial.
“It is important, it is an emergency, you need to break the glass, you really do need to take it up, and then we’re going to have an additional investigation,” Fallon stated. “While that’s why I filed the articles, you can always just sit on them and not do anything with them. That starts the ball rolling, we’re going to give Mayorkas the opportunity to defend himself and his department.”
But RINOs were already pitching a fit.
South Dakota Congressman Dusty Johnson complained it was unfair to impeach Mayorkas for violating his constitutional duty to defend the United States from invasion.
“Clearly, the management of the Southern border has been incompetent,” Johnson said in an interview with CNN. “That is not the threshold in the Constitution for impeachment – it’s high crimes and misdemeanors. … I would want to think about the legal standard the Constitution has set out – and whether or not that’s been met.”
Even if Republicans cannot reach the 67-vote threshold to convict and remove Mayorkas from office an impeachment trial would still hold benefits.
The Senate cannot take up any business other than the trial and the country would finally get a lengthy debate on the consequences of Joe Biden’s open borders agenda.
And that could help frame the stakes and terrain of the 2024 presidential election.
