This article was written a week prior to the day the Republican-majority House finally impeached DHS Secretary, Alejandro Mayorkas, which they did on February 13th, by a two-vote win.
______
Tonight the House took their vote on the Impeachment of Alejandro Mayorkas and the vote failed.
Good job, Republicans. Good job.
Four Republicans voted with the 212 Democrats for a total of 216 Nays and 214 Yays, saving Mayorkas from what would have been an innocuous slap on the wrist because it never would have passed in the Senate anyways. But nevertheless, this should have passed, because he is clearly guilty of violating the law and the Constitution, and he should undoubtedly be Impeached.
This is a no-brainer.
How hard was this to figure out?
The three who sided with the Dems were Tom McClintock (R-CA), Mike Gallaghere (R-WI), and of course, Ken Buck (R-CO).
The fourth, Blake Moore of Utah, switched his vote at the last minute to avoid a tie of 215-215, which would’ve meant the motion failed completely. Instead it can now be brought up again.
McClintock says he’s against it because it sets a troubling precedent that could be used and abused by future Congresses as a weapon against anyone they didn’t like or who was bad at their job.
That’s rich. Thank you so much, Mr. McClintock for protecting us all with your feigned self-righteousness. ‘Cuz we wouldn’t want to see any our government abuse the Constitution as a weapon against anyone just because they don’t like them or they’re bad at their jobs. As we’ve all had to endure the persecution of President Trump by way of two illegitimate impeachments.
God forbid the Republicans should take righteous, necessary action against a government official who, in my opinion, is actually guilty of treason.
No, we wouldn’t want to see any of that. It’s such messy business.
And now that it comes to legitimately removing an official who chronically, as an ongoing pattern, breaks the law and refuses to uphold the immigration laws already on the books and puts our National Security at risk in the process, you cannot be found. Are you sure your theory as to why you’re voting with the Democrats and against impeaching Mayorkas is that you don’t want to set an ugly precedence and future Congresses may use it to weaponize the precedent against their political opponents?
Have you seen the Democrat party lately?
According to Olivia Beavers, who was reportedly on the House floor and tweeting in real time, House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Mark Green (R-TN) along with other House Republicans tried to “strong arm” Gallagher to change his vote. “Said argument was how he doesn’t know how much blowback he’ll face from the base.” But he dug in.
Good job, Representative Gallagher.
You stupid, insane moronic substitutes for real leaders.
How hard can it be to do the right thing by the American people? How hard can it be to follow the law and the Constitution?
How hard could it be to do what you know needed to be done at least two years ago.
The rest of America is wondering: What happens to you people when you get to D.C.? Do you just automatically lose your minds?
Is it something in the water that’s causing your insanity?
Is it something in the air? (It is something in the air, actually.* It is the prince of the power of the air who has power over these people.)
Do you automatically lose your moral compass – your soul – when you move there? Like some kind of soul-snatching portal from hell is located over the top of D.C., or something?
Inquiring, sane minds want to know.
One of the Nay voters on this motion, Republican from Colorado, Ken Buck, announced his retirement last November, and he’s been voting with the Democrats ever since. His seat will be up for reelection this November and a newcomer will be seated in it at the beginning of 2025.
He has also released this statement:
“I am interested in talking to folks at CNN and other news organizations…and having an opportunity to do that full-time or do that as a contributor would be great also…”
It’s been obvious since this announcement as he’s voted with Democrats on every major issue, that he’s covering his ass. He’s trying to protect his future career by being sure not to tick-off the Communist Democrats.
Good job, Ken.
You may get some lucrative news anchor seat at CNN, or become a regular on the Left’s speaking circuit. But morally and in all the ways that count to God, you’ve already failed. You have no faith and no fear of Him. If you did, you would not be acting this way.
You are a disgrace.
Now the left can wave him like a flag over their agenda – a Republican who sides with them. (They love that. Like Liz Cheney. Adam Kinzinger. And now Ken Buck! So, good job, Ken!)
These three all voted against impeaching the anti-Constitutional, lawless, lying border official. Again, I say they don’t want to offend the power players. Forget what their constituents want – they are interested in saving their own butts. And somehow they think this will do it for them.
Steve Scalise missed the vote because he’s away for cancer treatments.
Now comes Trump supporter Alex Bruesewitz, who is calling on Speaker Mike Johnson to remove Gallagher from his chairmanship on the House Select Committee on Strategic Competition between the U.S. and the CCP (Chinese Communist Party).
(If you’re a regular reader of this Blog, I recommend you call the Capitol and ask for Speaker Mike Johnson’s office and tell him you support this. Remove Mike Gallagher from this chairmanship immediately. How can he possibly be in a position of responsibility that has to do with our national security when he won’t take necessary action to secure our border? He can’t.)
I’ve heard some reports that there have now been 100,000 Chinese nationals who have crossed the open Biden-Mayorkas border due to their despicable policies.
And therefore, I find Gallagher unfit for his seat and agree that he should be removed from this chairmanship. I mean, come on. This is common sense.
Meanwhile, Biden trudges around like Arthur’s butler. He doesn’t know who the current President of France or the difference between Mexico and Egypt is, as he slurs through speech after speech.
The violence in our cities and the drugs that have killed our youth due to this open border.
This is on Alejandro Mayorkas, and now it’s on the Republicans, too.
Every person in this country should be insisting on his removal from office. Every single one.
But you’ll never see the right thing coming from any Democrat. You won’t see any debate; any dissension. They don’t want to see, hear, or speak any truth. “I see nothing!”
They are marching in lock-step (like the Chinese military) – straight for the cliff. And when they fall off, hell is at the bottom.
God help us. Demons are in charge. Deliver us from evil, Lord. Please.
Also, we should recognize that the House Republicans have had to put work into letting their majority slip away. They’ve essentially shot themselves in the foot by this vote, and by doing so have undermined our national sovereignty and safety, too. Lessening their sliver of a majority, we’ve watched in recent months as former Speaker Kevin McCarthy resigned after being removed as speaker. I guess his feelings were hurt. Poor baby. When he did this he only confirmed the fact that removing him as Speaker was the right thing to do. He obviously cared more about his feelings and his position than he did the country, or he would’ve stayed in his seat as a Republican in order to help the country avoid votes like this one today.
The House also proved themselves selfish, not to mention self-righteous, when they ousted George Santos. The Democrats would have never done anything so stupid, as proven by their looking the other way regarding Bob Menendez. Santos was charged, but you are supposed to be innocent until proven guilty in this country. And he should’ve been left in his seat until he was convicted, since there was already such a tiny majority.
So, reducing their majority even further from a six-seat majority to a now four-seat majority, with two of those seats held by RINO’s, the House Republicans can only blame themselves.
And this is what happens.
And speaking of bodies of government who care more about their individual selves than they do the country, the Senate came up with their own Border Bill, which has been an unmitigated disaster. Allowing in 5,000 aliens per day? $118 Billion, with more money for Ukraine than our own military? More money going oversees than for our own border, and without closing our border.
The American people were so up in arms about this. This is the only reason it’s now deemed “Dead on Arrival” in the House.
“The only reason the border is not secure is Donald Trump and his MAGA Republican friends,” says JB.
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL.
Man, if you weren’t so sad, you would be a riot.
Man, you really have lost it all, Joe. You have lost it all. When you die you will go to hell. When you get there, please tell Hitler I said “Hi.” You’ll have a Democrat majority there, too.
So, good job, all you Dems. Good job.
And so has Mitch, who was set up in business by the CCP over twenty years ago. After supporting the disastrous Senate bill outrightly, today he changed his tune and said, ”It’s been made pretty clear to us by the Speaker, that it will not become law. So I want to congratulate Senator Lankford on a remarkable job negotiating with the other side, getting the support of the Border Council, but it looks to me and to most of our members as if we have no real chance here to make the law.”
I believe the word we’re looking for here is: Capricious.
In other news today, the DOJ has leaked (again) to the Washington Post that no charges will be brought against Biden for stealing classified documents. As the case against Trump advances, even though he was protected by the Presidential Records Act, which JB did not have as a Senator or as V.P., and President Trump had the right to have classified documents as President when JB didn’t. President Trump had also issued an Executive Order stating that any document he takes out of the White House is automatically declared de-classified; the documents that he had and he is being charged for were locked up and under Secret Service protection at Mar-A-Lago.
Meanwhile Biden, who was never president and stole the classified documents from SCIF’s when he was a mere Senator (he was known for doing this according to Robert Wilkie, former US Secretary of Veterans Affairs and former Undersecretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness, former Naval Intelligence Officer, and former Assistant Secretary of Defense for Legislative Affairs under George W. Bush), and then he left them unsecured not only at the UPENN Center where he also received members of the Chinese Communist Party, he also had classified documents in China town, and in completely unsecured boxes in his garage.
But his charges will be dropped.
Are you mad yet?
Yes, we all want to know: How is it that you all lose your ever-loving minds the minute you move into government in the septic tank that is D.C.?
What power satan has over you all. And we, the American people, pay the price.
Apparently, it’s just too difficult for compromised humans to maintain their sanity there. It’s too hard for most of you all to maintain your souls and keep yourselves out of hell.
So, you relegate yourselves to hell then.
Good job.
*Ephesians 2:2
2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
Ephesians 6:10-13
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.
Zechariah 8:16
16 These are the things you are to do: Speak the truth to each other, and render true and sound judgment in your courts; 17 do not plot evil against each other, and do not love to swear falsely. I hate all this,” declares the Lord.
Zechariah 10:3
My anger burns against the shepherds,
And I will punish the leaders.
Hi Seven, Great blog as usual! I don’t know if my other comments have gone through or not, but as I said in a previous one, they need to make Trump-Derangement Syndrome an actual psychiatric disorder!! Gloria Brazil

I agree. TDS.
We are in Holy Week, and it causes me to think of Jesus Derangement Syndrome even more than usual. How the Jews praised and worshipped Him at the beginning of the week for all His miracles of healing, feeding thousands, raising the dead, etc., but through social and cultural pressure from the Pharisees, by the end of the week they crucified Him. JDS – TDS. Both are true mental illnesses; you’re right.
