Yep this stuff is easy when you know it’s dead in the Senate and a sure veto.

Blah! Blah! Blah!
The usual GOP posture of standing in front of the bathroom mirror attempting to pose flexing their muscles happens again & again & again...
Remember obamycare?

From a decades-long history of suffering E.D. when an actual opportunity to do something arises (like having control of the WH, Senate, & House), we can be assured that this is kabuki theatre...

What action has the GOP House taken to free the J6 political prisoners?
Nothing... Nada... Crickets...
What action (promised) has the GOP taken to disarm obama's 87,000 new IRS assassins?
Nothing... Nada... Crickets...
Etc...Etc...

The perennial GOP circle jerk continues...
Their paychecks and perks keep coming...
Their fatuitous & pathetic House investigation hearings are more like unwanted flatulence...

Who were the two Republican defectors?

It doesn’t matter if it gets passed into law, if Biden can refuse to enforce it.

Yeah. They're real badasses when they know a bill has zero chance of becoming law.

Because it had a very good chance of being signed into law. Remember Republicans do this just for show

They have all sold their souls to the same master.

I always figure that the only things which motivate them in office are blackmail, bribery, and re-election.

“I always figure that the only things which motivate them in office are blackmail, bribery, and re-election.”

That is it, and we the people are not part of the equation. The only thing they represent are themselves.

I can’t believe how many are foolish enough to fall for this fraud.

Another law. Yawn. We have plenty of laws, but Democrats and RINOs ignore them. We have so many border laws that nobody should be able to sneak in.
We have so many gun laws that nobody should ever get shot.
We have so many financial control laws that nobody should ever be convicted of fraud or embezzlement.

We need the armed forces on the border to protect us from the enemy Mexico.

I don’t like that I am a cynic about this.

But R’s do not pass good border bills when the bills have a snowball’s chance in heck of becoming law.

There is -nothing- more aggressive than a Republican who knows their bill has no chance whatever of passing the Senate and getting signed by the president.

I’m betting they’re the two, one man-one woman, that after getting elected as republicans were all about letting “their people” in. Carlson did a segment on them.

Wow - the strongest ever!

If by some miracle it passes Congress and is signed into law, it will NEVER be enforced, by Republican Presidents, or Democrats.

And, if someone does try to enforce it, the politically corrupt federal judiciary will declare it unconstitutional.

Last 'graph from the article: Let's say the House impeached Mayorakas. Would the Senate then convict? Prolly no, but let's assume yes.

Then FJB gets to select a new nominee to take charge. He'll pick another Mayorkas, the Senate will vote yes and we'll be back to where we are now.

I guess the only thing that could remotely be considered positive about an impeachment would be, that the House would have a chance to expose all that they know about him.

Would they do it? Who knows?

But it would give them the perfect outlet to do so. And there’s not one thing any Democrat can do about it.
