As the news emerged Wednesday that House Republicans plan to move ahead with impeachment proceedings against him, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas reacted on live TV.
Mayorkas appeared on the MSNBC show “Morning Joe,” and as his segment was ending, co-anchor Willie Geist broke the news about a report that the House was expected to launch a full impeachment inquiry against him.
Reading a story published Wednesday by Punchbowl News, he told Mayorkas, “‘The House Homeland Security Committee is formally moving ahead with impeachment proceedings’ against you, with the hearing being held a week from today.”
“What’s your reaction?” he asked.
Mayorkas didn’t flinch visibly, but he might have sounded a little shaky trying to defend himself.
“You mentioned earlier in our conversation that I joined the bipartisan group of senators to work on legislative solutions to a broken immigration system,” Mayorkas said.
“I was on the Hill yesterday to provide technical advice in those ongoing negotiations. Before I hit the Hill, I was in the office working on solutions. After my visit to the Hill I was back in my office, working on solutions. That’s what we do in the Department of Homeland Security. That’s what this administration is focused on: Solutions to problems,” he said.
Asked if he would cooperate with the hearings, Mayorkas replied, “I most certainly will and I will continue to do my work as well.”

Good Lord, he thoroughly disgusts me, almost as much as Biden disgusts me.
“bipartisan group of senators to work on legislative solutions to a broken immigration system”
We DO NOT have a “BROKEN” immigration system. Just enforce the myriad immigration laws we have and everything works find.
“BROKEN immigration system” is nothing but progressive code words for “the great replacement.”
That’s what this administration is focused on: creating problems,” he said.
Too bad the Piano didn’t drop on him at the same time
His job description is to protect the homeland, yet all he’s done since his first day in office is to help facilitate our destruction. Just taking orders, like a good Nazi.
‘That’s what this administration is focused on: creating problems,” he said.’
Better yet, this is the whole demonrat party and all of leftism in general.
He's a Jew, so that's a stretch. He is flat-out SICK and HELLBENT on CLOWARD & PIVENING this country to DEATH while also making a future WHITE POPULATION in the United States a THING OF THE PAST.
The system isn't broken. Enforcement is broken.
Mayorkas is being dishonest.
I’m surprised he didn’t break out laughing.
Like he didn’t know what was coming - “Nobody DARES to treat me this way! Don’t you know who I am”?
Sure do, Alejandro Mayorkas, you are a diversity hire and you have been faking it with your pious posturing of being the descendant of Holocaust survivors.
And here you make no effort whatsoever to challenge the great potential for Hamas operatives to FREELY enter the United States and construct sleeper cells all over this country.
Impeachment is at least one solution to the Mayorkas problem, as long as removal goes with that.
Just going by the comments of those Republicans that didn’t go for impeachment the last time, was that if MTG had gone through the normal process of an inquiry first, it “might” have passed
Now, our thin majority is even thinner
That’s what this administration is focused on: Solutions to problems,” he said.
@@@@@@@@
One must always remember “ In governance Solutions are not the answer,”
WWG1WGA!
Impeachment of Mayorkas means nothing — it is Biden who controls the border and his intention is to give America away.
“That’s what this administration is focused on: Solutions to problems,” he said.” Mayorkas spoke this wrongly & should have said that this administration was creating the problems;not working on solutions....but..what could we expect from him or Biden?
I thought he was moving toward Clinton’s li(n)e, “Now I have to go back to working for the American people.”
Your solutions suck!
Well, I guess I’ll give the GOP credit for this, but it could and should have been done 1 week after they took control of the House.
And yet what all this accomplish? Can the House actually remove him without going thru the Senate? If not, what’s the use?
^^^ THIS!!! ^^^
resident Bidet will just put another in his place and do exactly the same thing (ignore the law). The only potential benefit to the House impeaching him is that the votes in the House & Senate will put a lot of Dems on record as not willing to secure our borders by holding the failed DHS Secretary accountable.
