Mayorkas Comes Unglued When John Kennedy Confronts Him With Illegal Immigration Facts

Department of Homeland Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, who is facing a looming impeachment trial in the U.S. Senate, had a 'meltdown' on Wednesday when Republican Congressman John Kennedy confronted him with several 'inconvenient' facts about illegal immigration under his tenure.

"Mr. Secretary, I don't hate anybody," Kennedy said. "I look for grace wherever I can find it. And I certainly don't hate you. My chairman talked about the Woolly Mammoths in the room, and I'm glad he brought that up. The chairman's immigration bill was negotiated by two members of my party, Senator Langford and Senator McConnell, and I don't speak for either one. They're both good men. The chairman said that the Republicans who negotiated his bill trusted you and wanted you there."

"And I'm not doubting his word," he continued. "It gives me no joy to say this us, but most Republicans don't trust you, and a vast majority of the American people don't trust you. That's why you've been impeached."

"Now, my Democratic colleagues are going to try to sweep your impeachment under the rug and violate 200 years of Senate precedent in doing it," he added. "I don't think that they will be able to sweep the issue, maybe your impeachment, but not the issue under a rug as big as the United States of America."
