GOP's Ken Buck opposes Mayorkas impeachment
Just the News ^ | 2/1/24 | Ben Whedon

Colorado Republican Rep. Ken Buck on Thursday indicated he would not support an effort to impeachment Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, contending that such a move lacked a valid basis.

The Republican indicated he was unconvinced of the merits of the impeachment articles the Homeland Security Committee approved earlier this week which accuse Mayorkas of "willful and systemic refusal to comply with the law," among other things.

"I've talked to constitutional experts on the outside. I’ve talked to former members about the impact that this would have in the future," he told reporters. "The people I'm talking to... agree that this just isn't an impeachable offense." He further described himself as a "solid" no on the impeachment vote.

The term “constitutional scholar” is usually directly tied to republicans caving in to democrats. It’s almost never used the other way around.

Im actually glad more of these phonies expose themselves. The impeachment is a good message but it won’t result in removal even when it passes, but the scum that vote to protect him will be like cockroaches in the sunlight.

When malfeasance in office is not an impeachable offense, . . .

I would think that an impeachable offense is whatever the House of Representatives decides it is...

Ken doesn’t want to jeopardize his new job after he retires.

Buck is not a democrat help mate, he is a democrat. He just calls himself a republican.
