The House wanted to get the votes of Democrats on record SUPPORTING Biden and Mayokas' desire and intention to keep the border open at all costs, in direct defiance of what the overwhelming majority of American voters said they wanted. Now it's going to be up to every House Democrat to defend that vote against the very powerful Republican campaigns showing how each of those Democrats had the opportunity to vote to close the border and refused to do so, against the votes of any House incumbents who DID vote to get rid of Mayorkas. And since the Republicans held the majority in the House, Democrats had no choice but to have that vote put before them, and every one voted AGAINST impeachment.
So did you think it was going to be easy for Democrats to defend that decision when faced with the obvious question in the upcoming campaign?:
"Tell us, Congressman Liberal. Why did you vote against impeaching Mayokas when he clearly was violating US immigration laws instead of voting for impeachment to send a message to Biden to appoint a new Homeland Secretary who would have closed the border to illegals as the country is demanding?"
Your turn.
But they are useless, and should be made to answer substantive questions on policy, like
"Why are you being Putin's buttboy ?"
