Republicans began the first in a series of congressional hearings meant to investigate whether DHSgov SecMayorkas was derelict in his duties. Mayorkas has handled the nation's border for the nearly 2 1/2 years that JoeBiden has been in office.
The House Homeland Security Committee on Wednesday began an investigation into how Mayorkas has handled the nation's border for the nearly 2 1/2 years that President Joe Biden has been in office."This is not a case of negligence. If it were, the implications would be different. The remedy would be different," Rep. Dan Bishop said during the hearing."Intentional sabotage of the rule of law is something entirely different.
Chairman Mark Green steered clear of any mention of impeachment and focused his opening remarks, line of questioning, and closing statements on how Mayorkas had changed immigration policies. "Americans have gotten used to political theater from congressional Republicans, but this hearing is a new low," said Rep. Bennie Thompson , the ranking member on the committee."You don’t have to look further than the title to know this hearing is a sham. Calling a hearing and saying 'case closed' before you’ve heard any testimony is not legitimate oversight."
