Mayorkas impeachment trial updates: Senate dismisses 1st article as 'unconstitutional'

[C_Clayton_Jones]

Well of course you own the border crisis now, and all the terrorists attacks that will go along with the open border.

And the Senate has wisely, appropriately, and constitutionally ended this ridiculous rightwing farce, this partisan, bad faith, meritless ‘impeachment.’

“The U.S. Senate has rejected both articles of impeachment against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, swiftly ending the trial triggered by the House's narrow vote to impeach in February.”

I’m really hoping the repubs get a chance to use this precedent. It will be quite entertaining…

At some point way down the line (it would mean the Dems recaptured the House)

I’m fine with that, as long as repubs can tell them to take their impeachment and stick it where the sun doesn’t shine, worth it…

You lie. Schumer stopped a legitimate trial to take place to determine if Mayorkas violated the law. Schumer took it upon himself to be prosecutor, jury and judge.

Mayorkas lied to Congress when saying border is “as secure as it can be” .​

SEE: Mayorkas tells Congress border ‘as secure as it can be,’ cannot ‘recall’ saying 85% of migrants are released into US

Published April 16, 2024, 1:54 p.m. ET

“Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas told lawmakers Tuesday that the US-Mexico border is “as secure as it can be” — adding that he did not “recall” admitting earlier this year that more than 85% of migrants apprehended at the southern frontier are released into the US.”

Lying under oath constitutes perjury and is a criminal offense.

A federal judge in Manhattan sentenced Michael Cohen to three years in prison for various crimes including lying to Congress.

And Schumer stopped a trial to determine if Mayorkas was guilty of a crime.

When violent hate America demonstrations and terrorist attacks begin on American soil, let us not forget it was the current Democrat Party Leadership who encouraged and invited millions upon millions of poverty-stricken, poorly educated, low-skilled, diseased, disabled, criminal, and un-vetted terrorist foreign nationals, into our country.

And in the process of political partisan bickering among those we elect; our country is being destroyed from within as each day passes.

Today’s authoritarian revolutionaries are intent on destroying American from within, and part of that plan is to overwhelm the United States with millions upon millions of poverty-stricken, poorly educated, low-skilled, diseased, disabled, criminal, and un-vetted terrorist foreign nationals. And as we can see, the predictable consequences of doing so are beginning to be felt. Our inner-city schools, public housing and emergency care facilities, all meant for American Citizens, are being taken over by illegal entrant foreign nationals, not to mention they are beginning to actively cause major disturbances across our country by their orchestrated demonstrations in local communities in addition to closing down our public highways.

Have you forgotten Obama’s desire to create his own national security force?

Yep, and I’m hoping they keep doing it. Let’s be honest, not an ounce of my pushback is going to change how they feel. I’m just embracing their goals, and actively hoping they continue.

It’s clear that argument isn’t going stop the locomotive we are one that is careening into..whatever this future holds, so, I want the dems to do..what the dems do. Yeah, it’s going to hurt, but, it’s a sure fire way to take them out of power..eventually.

We’re already seeing it, look at trans in women’s sports…people are starting to push back..which is why I encourage democrats to lean even harder into it…

You embrace the United States being destroyed from within? Is that what you are suggesting?

The lie was the dishonest, partisan, bad faith ‘impeachment’ of Secretary Mayorkas.

The lie was that Mayorkas refused to comply with immigration law.

The lie was that Mayorkas was ‘allowing’ an ‘invasion’ of undocumented immigrants.

The Republican ‘impeachment’ of Secretary Mayorkas was nothing but lies.
