Impeaching Alejandro Nicholas Mayorkas, Secretary of Homeland Security, for High Crimes and Misdemeanors

Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. CRANE. Madam Speaker, Article IV, Section 4 of the Constitution, often known as the invasion clause, says that this government will protect every State from invasion.

That is something that clearly this Secretary is in complete dereliction of duty of, and I know that he swore an oath to protect and defend the Constitution.

Now, I am not sure how many Americans have to die of fentanyl or have their kids raped and murdered by MS-13 gang members. We had one in Homeland Security just a couple weeks ago begging us to do something about this absolutely atrocious leadership from the Secretary.

Nonetheless, it is high time that this individual be held accountable for his complete dereliction of duty at our southern border.

I urge my colleagues to support this resolution.

The last thing I want to say is that I think it tells you everything you need to know when my colleagues say that it doesn't matter if you impeach Secretary Mayorkas, we are just going to have somebody come in and do the same exact job.

Mr. CRANE. Thank you for saying the quiet part out loud.

Yes, your policies are so bad that no matter whom you put in there it will cause the same amount of damage to the American people. The people of this country are watching. Let's get this done.
