The Democrats are up to their old tricks again, trying to sweep another Biden administration scandal under the rug! A group of thirteen bold Republican senators, led by powerhouse names like Mike Lee and Ted Cruz, have had enough. They’ve sent a scathing letter to Senate leader Mitch McConnell, demanding a formal impeachment trial for Alejandro Mayorkas, the pro-migration border chief. This impeachment is long overdue, as Mayorkas was impeached on February 13 for brazenly refusing to enforce America’s border laws. It’s time for the Senate to stand up and hold this man accountable for his flagrant disregard of our nation’s security.
Republican Senators Urge McConnell to Ensure Mayorkas Impeachment Trial https://t.co/1gFafWoRGs via @BreitbartNews

The Republican senators are not pulling any punches, calling out the Democrats for their attempt to evade their responsibility to conduct a proper trial in the Senate. It’s absolutely outrageous, and the Republicans are not having it! They’re making it crystal clear that every Senator, both Republican and Democrat, must adjudicate this matter. It’s about time they put their foot down and demand that the Democrats do their job, instead of trying to sweep this all under the rug.
But of course, the Democrats and their establishment lackeys are already hinting that they will ignore the House’s indictment and will not hold Mayorkas’ trial in the Senate. Typical! They think they can just slip through the cracks without facing the consequences of their disastrous policies. Well, not on the Republican senators’ watch! They will not stand idly by while the Democrats try to weasel their way out of holding a proper trial.
And let’s not forget about Chuck Schumer, the Senate’s Majority Leader, who has dismissed the impeachment as a “new low for House Republicans.” Please! This is just classic Schumer, trying to downplay the severity of Mayorkas’ actions and protect the Biden administration at all costs. But the brave Republican senators are not buying it. They know that this impeachment is absolutely necessary to hold Mayorkas accountable for his refusal to enforce Congress’s law, which requires the detention of migrants at the nation’s border until their asylum claims are completed.
Mayorkas and his pro-migration cronies can try to spin their “catch and release” policy as just “prosecutorial discretion,” but we see right through their facade. This reckless policy only serves to encourage illegal migration and line the pockets of smugglers, drug cartels, and labor traffickers. It’s appalling to see the Biden administration turn a blind eye to the devastating impact of their open border policies. Under Biden and Mayorkas, over 6.2 million migrants have flooded into our country, causing harm to both Americans and migrants alike. It’s an absolute crisis, and the Republicans are not letting the Democrats off the hook for their role in enabling this disaster.
Furthermore, Mayorkas has repeatedly asked Congress to fund fewer detention beds, further undermining our nation’s border defenses. It’s clear that Mayorkas and the Democrats have no regard for the safety and security of our country. They are willing to sacrifice everything to push their pro-migration agenda, even if it means putting American lives at risk. The time for accountability is now.
It’s not surprising that McConnell is trying to avoid a Mayorkas trial, as he hasn’t taken a firm position on the matter. But the resilient Republican senators, like Lee and Cruz, are not backing down. They’ve even met with the Senate parliamentarian to ensure that Schumer cannot simply brush aside the historic impeachment articles. The truth must come to light, and the Democrats must be held accountable for their shameful attempts to evade their duty.
Mayorkas may be trying to shrug off his impeachment, but the American people will not forget his betrayal of our nation’s security. This is not some petty political game – it’s about standing up for the safety and well-being of our country. The Republican senators are fighting tooth and nail to ensure that Mayorkas faces the consequences of his reckless actions. It’s time for the Democrats to stop playing politics and start taking responsibility for the mess they’ve created at our border.
