mayorkas is working with what he has to work with. republicans had a bill and the democrats went whroong that bill. and then trump said he didn't want it he was going to use it for his republicans that the republicans shouldn't push it. but you know what, mayorkas said what he said because that's what he has to work with. republicans do not wants to win the border crisis they want to use it as a campaign. and that's for trump. now, the republicans know trump is going to be convicted and they're doing everything they can to push it on biden for everything that's going wrong in this country. biden is out there doing his best for everyone. republicans and democrats. and it's a shame that it was a circus today with the republicans. especially at the end when that man ranted two hours after it was adjourned and just kept on going. thank you for listening to me.

it is secretary alejandro mayorkas. repeatedly, repeatedly stood before the american people, stood before us in hearings and committees and said the border is secure. anyone who was watching, anyone who has ever been to that border knows the border is not secure. they know that on the side of that border it is being run by the cartel. you can spend an hour with the border patrol and you will find out. last year there were people from 170 different countries that came to that southern border seeking entry and not one of them got here on their own. they paid the cartel and the cartel bring them over. the cartel are making a fortune. we are paying the price. and we are paying this price because of the dereliction of duty carried out by secretary mayorkas. in the way he's not standing up for the border patrol and not standing up for the american people. that is an issue and yes a responsibility, did we have that responsibility? you bet we do and that is why we are here on this floor to talk about this. because our border, w

mayorkas. he told his contributors to get the popcorn, and promised it's going to be fun. according to an internal republican memo, republicans had already scheduled a committee vote to impeach the secretary prior to holding a hearing. this entire thing was a sham from the start. after two hastily thrown together so-called impeachment hearings, that provided that even a shred of evidence of an impeachable offense, republicans short-circuited their own markup and refused to let democrats offer amendments in the rush to the house floor. in advance of the vote the secretary, who is jewish and his mother survived the holocaust, was referred to using language the american jewish community has included in its glossary of anti-semitic terms. mr. chairman, i asking in this consent to insert into the record an article describing this incident. >> so ordered. >> the impeachment vote failed. in another embarrassing miscalculation of house republican leadership, on a second try republicans limped their sha

we receive the impeachment articles on secretary mayorkas tomorrow or next week. the democrat leader of the senate still plans on halting the process to stop an impeachment trial. make no mistake about it the vote to block the impeachment trial by secretary mayorkas is a vote to keep the borders open a book to tell lincoln riley's family that we don't care. 250,000 americans who lost a loved one is that no poisoning that we don't care. it's significant it would only take two democrats to deny tabling this process in order to proceed with an impeachment trial. but we truly don't think that's going to be the case. why? because this issue is so toxic the senate democrats, the house democrats and the joe biden that they don't want this to be the issue of the day. but my hope is the good people of montana and ohio wisconsin and michigan, nevada, pennsylvania that they hold their senators accountable this november. let me make one thing clear before he turn it over to my colleague. tabling this impeachment article is a nuclear option. in our estimation this is a nuclear
