GOP-led House impeaches Homeland Security Secretary Mayorkas — by one vote — over border management

By one vote or not- StIll impeached. Who’s next?

What an exercise in quackery...the Pubs refuse to vote for a bill that would add $20 billion to border security, to include funding for their beloved "wall" that they failed to fund and build for four years, but they want to spend their time on a useless exercise to impeach the guy that won't give any money to so he can do his job...

Incompetent, hypocritical, bumblers...they name is Republican...

And Americans will remember come November...

Great! Happy this is finally done, now this guy won’t be removed from Senate since the Dems have a slim one seat majority but it sends a clear message that this guy was treasonous in his actions, lied to Congress on numerous of occasions and this will be his legacy, so even symbolic, it’s the right action to take.

And Americans will remember come November...

Yes, yes, they will and looking at the polls, Dems should be jumping their sinking ship

On the 2nd try by a single vote, slow clap.

Not for a crime, or at least not one the cult can enumerate and defend.

Not even for a difference of policy.

To keep orange blob happy.

a bill that would add $20 billion to border security

But you left out “and add 60 billion to Ukraine” and 20 billion more to other foreign countries.

you didn’t intentionally leave that out, right?!

And Americans will remember come November...

Yes, yes, they will and looking at the polls, Dems should be jumping their sinking ship

The Trump Titanic...with all the Repubs lining the rails...watching it sink....ROFL..

But hey, don’t solve the problem even when the most conservative policy changes ever are handed to you on a silver platter.

That would deny fat Don a Len issue and he has nothing to run on without it!

So let the border remain unfixed for political gain.

Yeah, I’m sure that’ll work out about as well as everything else the cult leader has “strategized.”

Pure political theatre. Means absolutely nothing.

Blacklabel

By one vote or not- StIll impeached. Who’s next?

Not Biden, that's for sure.

The GQP is now the open-borders cult.

And this stupid impeachment won’t get a majority, much less the 2/3.

But why fix problems when you can fundraise off them, eh?

On the 2nd try by a single vote, slow clap. 

You need to turn your volume up.

Not for a crime, or at least not one the cult can enumerate and defend. 

What?

Not even for a difference of policy. 

To keep orange blob happy.

He will need a job when this one finishes.

The Trump Titanic...with all the Repubs lining the rails...watching it sink....ROFL..

More like jumping onto a Carrier. Lol

a bill that would add $20 billion to border security

But you left out “and add 60 billion to Ukraine” and 20 billion more to other foreign countries. 

And almost all of that would have stayed in the US in the form of contracts and jobs.

You didn’t leave that part out intentionally, eh?

On the 2nd try by a single vote, slow clap. 

You need to turn your volume up.

And you need to return (if in fact you’ve ever been there in the first place) to fact-based reality.

But hey, don’t solve the problem even when the most conservative policy changes ever are handed to you on a silver platter.

If wouldn’t have, that’s why the House Republicans are calling the Senate disaster for what it is. Wish you could see my fingers.

That would deny fat Don a Len issue and he has nothing to run on without it!

If it secured the border, but there is nothing that will secure it so, let’s play Taps now

So let the border remain unfixed for political gain. 

Well, Abbott and more Republicans are sending in forces, razor wire and men to help him, thank God they’re capable of doing the job that Myorkas and Biden will never do. Bless these patriots

Yeah, I’m sure that’ll work out about as well as everything else the cult leader has “strategized.”

It will.

What a stupid waste of time!

Meanwhile, nothing meaningful changes under the control and leadership of the Republicans.

a bill that would add $20 billion to border security

But you left out “and add 60 billion to Ukraine” and 20 billion more to other foreign countries.

I didn't leave it out - the Repubs did - you know, like;

Johnson in Nov: "Any bill for Ukraine aide must be linked with border security"...

Johnson in Feb: "The bipartisan bill linking Ukraine aid and border security I demanded in Nov is now dead on arrival"...

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/us-senate-aid-ukraine-israel-vote-amount-b2495337.html

New Guinness record holder for flipping...

you didn’t intentionally leave that out, right?!

No me - your fellow Repubs...

Just more examples that Repubs love an open border - keeping open that pipeline of maids and groundskeepers to Bedminster...

https://www.vox.com/2019/2/4/18207096/victorina-morales-undocumented-immigrant-trump

And almost all of that would have stayed in the US in the form of contracts and jobs.

You didn’t leave that part out intentionally, eh?

Oh absolutely! I hear there were pinky promises all around!

How many millions of people did him and Biden let cross the border?

They should both be impeached and removed, if not now then this November.

They are finally starting to believe

https://www.amren.com/news/2024/02/the-border-crisis-is-helping-to-mainstream-a-dangerous-conspiracy-theory/

What a stupid waste of time!

So why are the Dems angry?

Meanwhile, nothing meaningful changes under the control and leadership of the Republicans.

Well, a lot and that’s opposing anything and everything that is detrimental and undermines the sovereignty of the U.S.

to fact-based reality.

which is that your boo got impeached. Doesn’t matter by how many votes. Impeached. Your boo. reeeeeeeee!

By one vote or not- StIll impeached. Who’s next?

Not Biden, that's for sure

But the cult’s blob boi is going to be convicted of multiple felonies. 

Hey, you don’t think that could me a related factor in this freak show, so you????

Not Biden, that's for sure.

Nope the people gonna throw him out in November.

Possible - Haley certainly has a chance...given her Repub opponent will be watching the returns on Fox from the Leavenworth dayroom...of course he'll think its "Nancy" running against Biden...

but I still think we could tell him today that the election was held and he lost and he would believe it and leave.

BINGO! Couldn't have summed up Nov 2020 better...and three years and 61 lost court cases later the demented old fool still thinks he won...and that you need an ID to buy bread...

which is that your boo got impeached. Doesn’t matter by how many votes. Impeached. Your boo. reeeeeeeee!

And "your boo" Trump was impeached TWICE...is that double the "reeeeeeee"?

ROFL..

What a waste of time!

With all of the more important stuff to do, these Republicans do squat!

Abortion rights? Forget it!

Keeping guns out of the hands of crazies? Forget it!

Free school lunches for poor children? Forget about it!

Support Putin in his his military aggression against Ukraine/NATO?

Hotdog! We love Putin!

Suozzi wins NY special election. Yet another rejection of the corrupt, traitorous GOP.

Typical GOP. Failed to pass the border bill improving security, then blame someone else.

I wonder if this vote is a way for Johnson to appease enough Republicans so that the House will vote for the Senate's funding bill.

They had to impeach him now because the lunatic the GQP nominated to replace disgraced GQP Hose rep Georgie Santos lost.

If they hadn’t done it now, they would have tied and failed, AGAIN.

So again, congrats on the flailing that’s going no where.

Yet another cult “win”, lol.

which is that your boo got impeached. Doesn’t matter by how many votes. Impeached. Your boo. reeeeeeeee!

"My dad's bigger than your dad. And he's gonna get ya!" Playground stuff.

To republicans and Democrats: in the words of Mercutio, a plague on both your houses.

I think it7s about time the adults were allowed in US politics, cos this is endless playground nonsense!

Or better still, let the youth do it, cos the adults have screwed up the country real good.

Suozzi wins NY special election. Yet another rejection of the corrupt, traitorous GOP.

Joke’s on the Dems when they pull off Suozzi’s Scooby-Doo mask at the swearing in ceremony and it is none other than “George Santos”

National security starts at home, known terrorists are pouring the US now from FBI terror watch list, border patrol cameras identifying hundreds, many more surely not being identified, just since Oct 7th.

FBI Director Wray says risk of US domestic terror today, NEVER higher in his many decades in testimony to Congress last month.

US citizens tired of rising crime, cartels and their human and drug trafficking, killing many US citizens. Ukraine not the priority for MOST Americans, except the globalists!

What a waste of time! 

How do?

With all of the more important stuff to do, these Republicans do squat!

Trying to keep Myorkas in line for not doing his job????

Abortion rights? Forget it!

You do, if you want to kill babies you have other states where you can do this.

Keeping guns out of the hands of crazies? Forget it!

The Dems controlled all 3 branches in 2020, they could have done something and they didn’t.

Free school lunches for poor children? Forget about it!

Who’s going to pay for that?

Support Putin in his his military aggression against Ukraine/NATO?

Hotdog! We love Putin!

No, no we don’t m.

NY 3rd wasn’t even close.

The GQP dumped millions in “border invasion” ads and couldn’t hold the seat.

Maybe not the sure fire winner that the very stable “genius” thought it was….

looking at the polls, Dems should be jumping their sinking ship

Democrats are on their way to flipping the seat vacated by ultra MAGA scumbag George Santos.

By a lot. In a district that has till now been moving to the right.

People are sick of the do-nothing faux histrionics of the Trump cult running the House now.

Democrats are on their way to flipping the seat vacated by ultra MAGA scumbag George Santos.

Well, good for him.

By a lot. In a district that has till now been moving to the right.

Not really.

People are sick of the do-nothing faux histrionics of the Trump cult running the House now.

No, but in a city like NY if you can make it and win as a Republican, you’re doing good. Kinda like the Dems thinking they can turn Texas Blue. ROFL!

Free school lunches for poor children? Forget about it!

Who’s going to pay for that?

A decent society would have lunches provided by the school, so the same people who are paying for the school, I guess.

They have filed legislation to impeach a long list including Vice President Kamala Harris, Attorney General Merrick Garland, FBI Director Christopher Wray and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin.

Because Lord 'n' Lil Savior demands it.

Great! Happy this is finally done, now this guy won’t be removed from [sic] Senate since the Dems have a slim one seat majority but it sends a clear message that this guy was treasonous in his actions, lied to Congress on numerous of occasions and this will be his legacy, so even symbolic, it’s the right action to take.

Treason? I must have missed that. What was his “treasonous” action?

--By a lot. In a district that has till now been moving to the right.

Not really.

Do tell.

A decent society would have lunches provided by the school, so the same people who are paying for the school, I guess.

I am a very decent person, but my responsibilities are towards my family, not others. I don’t want to fund that.

Because Lord 'n' Lil Savior demands it

Not just him, but it would be a good thing.

Treason? I must have missed that. What was his “treasonous” action?

That’s like saying what did Bill Clinton get impeached for?

What was his “treasonous” action?

Attempting to thwart the peaceful transfer of power and overturn the results of a legitimate election.

Oh, wait. That was somebody else . . .

I am a very decent person, but my responsibilities are towards my family, not others. I don’t want to fund that.

Everyone thinks they are decent, even selfish people. They are able to come up with any number of reasons to justify their selfishness. Not saying that's you, of course.

Anyway, we all have our own standards of decency is my point. That's why compromising is so important in a democracy like ours.

--What was his “treasonous” action?

That’s like saying what did Bill Clinton get impeached for?

= "I can't answer the question."

Treason? I must have missed that. What was his “treasonous” action?

That’s like saying what did Bill Clinton get impeached for?

That’s like not giving an an answer.

Clinton clearly got impeached for lying under oath. What was the so-called “treason” in this case?

One of only three slightly sane Repubs left in the House...

"Colorado Representative Ken Buck slammed his fellow Republicans for voting to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas Tuesday night, warning that the decision could threaten Congress's "credibility" with the American public.

Buck was one of three GOP lawmakers who split with the rest of their party, rejecting the charges that accuse Mayorkas of ignoring immigration laws and making "false statements" about the U.S. southern border with Mexico."

https://www.newsweek.com/republican-congressman-blasts-party-mayorkas-impeachment-1869727

Well Ken, I think it's safe to assume the American public has already lost any faith and credibility in the clownish Repub House of Chaos...

From colluding with Dems to mutiny against their own Speaker, to the MTG and Boebert catfight, to Volleyball-God George Santos, to this latest self-own where they sink a border bill they demanded only three months ago, it's "all chaos and incompetence, all the time"...

The American public want legislation, not far-right "stunts" and performance art buffoonery...

I don’t want to fund that.

Then, as you say to others, you're free to move to another country.

Maybe Japan.

= "I can't answer the question."

I did. Lied under oath+impeached=lost law license

Simple

Then, as you say to others, you're free to move to another country.

Maybe Japan.

Or even in Texas, not with my money.

Americans first NEED THEIR Security enforced and protected, So Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan, etc. all have to take a back seat. Makes sense, taxpayers everywhere care about domestic matters more than foreign matters.

That’s like not giving an an answer. 

It Was and it’s in the history books.

Clinton clearly got impeached for lying under oath. What was the so-called “treason” in this case?

Some people called it an act of treason. But the point is, we know what Myorkas didn’t do. And that’s why he finally got impeached.

Everyone thinks they are decent, even selfish people.

Interesting.

They are able to come up with any number of reasons to justify their selfishness. Not saying that's you, of course.

Duly noted

Anyway, we all have our own standards of decency is my point. That's why compromising is so important in a democracy like ours

When the conditions and reasons are right, then, yes.

Free school lunches for poor children? Forget about it!

Who’s going to pay for that?

I don’t want to fund that.

Wait..! Whaaat?! You don't want to fund free school lunches even for the poorest kids? Only self self self, eh? Call yourself civilized eh? Think people would call you tight-fisted/selfish/mean/scrooge.

Any government of any country can deal with many crises at the same time and not just one.

How many immigrants entered the US when Trump was in office? How many were deported?

https://www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/2024/02/11/trump-biden-immigration-border-compared/

we know what Myorkas didn’t do. And that’s why he finally got impeached.

Is that treason? You called Myorkas treasonous.

By that rationale Trump's Secretaries of Homeland Security should have been impeached for not getting Mexico to pay for the border wall.

Chaos is building in US, crime, terrorists, drug cartels as Biden's busy collapsing politically. Old men with bad memories don't survive in politics if you believe in Machiavelli and his princely rules to maintain power.

Having the US over-run with illegals is hardly a position of strength for Biden, he needs to reimpose the Trump policies that were in effect, more money's not the issue.

Wait..! Whaaat?! You don't want to fund free school lunches even for the poorest kids?

I don’t

Only self self self, eh?

No, if it’s done privately, do it all day long, I don’t care and o would definitely support that.

Call yourself civilized eh?

Yes

Think people would call you tight-fisted/selfish/mean/scrooge.

They can call me that, but I could care less because I’m not. I do a lot of things to help people and animals in a responsible way, but I want to choose where my money goes, I don’t want the government making that decision for me and my money.

Is that treason? You called Myorkas treasonous.

ABSOLUTELY!

By that rationale Trump's Secretaries of Homeland Security should have been impeached for not getting Mexico to pay for the border wall.

No, but if you want to impeach Pelosi for blocking the aid, please…

Luckily for GOP they got this vote today. Because Santos' replacement is a Democrat, and now the GOP's majority in the house is 3.

Any government of any country can deal with many crises at the same time and not just one.

Not this one, or this magnitude, this is why, this is why he got impeached?

Not even close to 1/3 of what Myorkas has let in.

You can see where it spiked once Myorkas took over, just insane!

https://urbanmilwaukee.com/pressrelease/ahead-of-border-trip-johnson-releases-updated-data-on-border-apprehensions-highlights-testimony-from-border-hearings/

Luckily for GOP they got this vote today.

Luck had nothing to do with it.

HopeSpringsEternal

Having the US over-run with illegals is hardly a position of strength for Biden, he needs to reimpose the Trump policies that were in effect, more money's not the issue.

No. Actually the House needed to vote on the border bill when they had the chance. Biden can't allocate funds for the border, only Congress can do that.

So now the GOP is the open borders party.

That's Washington nowadays: Tit-for-tat retaliation and endless backbiting. No problem solving going on. I wish we could vote out the whole lot. They are utterly useless and embarrassing.

bass4funk

Any government of any country can deal with many crises at the same time and not just one.

Not this one, or this magnitude, this is why, this is why he got impeached?

So should they now impeach Mike Johnson, because he stopped a vote on the best border bill ever for their constituents. The National Border Patrol Council supported the bill.

I think so. Impeach Mike Johnson.

So now the GOP is the open borders party.

In the msm world perhaps.

That's Washington nowadays: Tit-for-tat retaliation and endless backbiting. No problem solving going on.

I agree.

Boy, for a “party” on the glide path to inevitable domination, the GQP sure does seem to be losing a lot of elections and referendums.

It’s almost like their message/messengers are radioactive…..

bass4funk

*So now the GOP is the open borders party.*

In the msm world perhaps.

In reality. The GOP has decided to do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about the border.

Lol the GOP is so pathetic. It took them multiple votes to get him impeached. And they didn't even impeach him for a high crime or misdemeanor. They impeached him because they claim Biden could use executive power to do more.

So should they now impeach Mike Johnson, because he stopped a vote on the best border bill ever for their constituents.

Again, you wouldn’t know anything about it and it doesn’t bother your way of life.

The National Border Patrol Council supported the bill. 

And who do they answer to??? Give me a break! lol

I think so. Impeach Mike Johnson.

Lol, yeah, whatever….

Boy, for a “party” on the glide path to inevitable domination, the GQP sure does seem to be losing a lot of elections and referendums. 

Not with this impeachment and not with this DOA bill, that’s a strong win!

It’s almost like their message/messengers are radioactive…..

Speaking this toxic bill thats about to go into flames….

= "I can't answer the question."

I did. Lied under oath+impeached=lost law license.

Wow! Is that “treason”?

In reality. The GOP has decided to do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about the border.

Wrong. Not according to the charts.

Thank God for Abbott

Open Borders building for 3+ years, since Biden reversed Trump policies. Americans know this, why Trump's 30+ points ahead of Biden in polling on BORDER.

Americans deem BORDER Security & High Prices TOP 2 issues in all Polling, TRUMP's their choice on these issues!

Open Borders building for 3+ years, since Biden reversed Trump policies. Americans know this, why Trump's 30+ points ahead of Biden in polling on BORDER.

Trump's policies did nothing to fix the border. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. So there's that.

But the GOP house had a chance to do that and allocate funds to it, which and executive order cannot do.

Open borders GOP house failed Americans.

HopeSpringsEternal

Americans deem BORDER Security & High Prices TOP 2 issues in all Polling, TRUMP's their choice on these issues!

That's a shame for Trump, because he is to blame for the open border. He even said blame me.

And yet they keep losing all these off-year elections and referendums.

Hmmmm……

I would rather lose every other election than to lose control of the purse. That would be a seriously scary scenario.

That's happening in November, if not before.

Americans and their views EXPRESSED in dozens and dozens of polling just THIS YEAR. It's clear, Trump and Republicans WIN Border Issue, by +30 points, not open for debate, polling facts, these are tricky little things!

Abbott secured a park. Not the border.

When you can live and vote in the U.S., change policy and live near or around the border, I’ll listen to your opinion, in the meantime, I do enjoy the fun dialogue. I was talking earlier today with someone from China trying to give me lectures about our border, lol, yeah, but definitely a very nice gentleman.

HIGHLY regarded CBS Poll released just last week had Trump +35 on BORDER issue vs. Biden, nuff said!

HIGHLY regarded NBC Poll released just last week had Trump +35 on BORDER issue vs. Biden, nuff said!

*Americans and their views EXPRESSED in dozens and dozens of polling just THIS YEAR. It's clear, Trump and Republicans WIN Border Issue, by +30 points, not open for debate, polling facts, these are tricky little things!*

Wow, that's going to tank once the political ads demonstrate what actually happened to the voters. And the Dems have a lot of money for ads. Trump's donor money is going to court cases.

*By that rationale Trump's Secretaries of Homeland Security should have been impeached for not getting Mexico to pay for the border wall.*

No, but if you want to impeach Pelosi for blocking the aid, please…

So how did Nancy (Nikki?) block the aid when Repubs had majorities for Trump's first two years?

Why couldn't Trump get McConnell and Ryan to fund the wall? Too weak?

Why was Trump employing illegal maids (plus others) during his first two years? Does he like employing "murderers and rapists"?

The facts are Trump had two years of Repub leadership in the House and Senate - and failed to get any border security aid...all the while getting his bed turned down each night while at Bedminster by Victoria Morales - an illegal immigrant...

https://www.vox.com/2019/2/4/18207096/victorina-morales-undocumented-immigrant-trump

Then you have Repub House members openly admitting they tanked their own border security bill because of pure politics...

"Texas Representative Troy Nehls showed his true colors on Wednesday, refusing to back any sort of border deal because he claimed it could help President Joe Biden’s slumping poll numbers. "Let me tell you, I’m not willing to do too damn much right now to help a Democrat and to help Joe Biden’s approval rating,” the MAGA Republican told CNN."

And there it is in black and white - Repubs could care less about border security - it's all "politics"....

Craven, incompetent, hypocrites...

American people express themselves in polling, that's the best metric to judge US sentiment on issues, like BORDER. IT's OBVIOUS Trump and r's WINNING the border, anyone who thinks otherwise should think twice.

Trump was impeached twice for breaking laws.

What laws has Alejandro Mayorkas broken?

It's worth noting, Americans remember Trump's successful Border policies and control over illegal immigration. Only 3+ years ago, Trump made major policy changes that worked, people miss those policies.

HopeSpringsEternal

Everyone, as in “everybody”? Everybody’s clause? Wow, that certainly a damning charge.
