Sen. Blackburn to Newsmax: Americans Want Mayorkas Impeached

Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., told Newsmax on Tuesday that GOP senators fully expect Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., to table the articles of impeachment against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, but that impeaching the Biden official is something “the American people want to see.”

“When you look at the tens of thousands of Americans who have died from fentanyl poisoning, and then you look at the issue of human trafficking, sex trafficking, the thousands of women and girls that have been pulled into sex trafficking by the cartels, the way the cartels have facilitated moving gangs … onto U.S. soil; when you look at the establishment of the cartels with their hubs, where they push the drugs, the human trafficking, the labor gangs, the sex trafficking, all of this has had such an adverse and negative impact,” Blackburn said during an appearance on “Wake Up America.”

“It is important that Secretary Mayorkas be held to account,” she said. “He has done [President] Joe Biden’s bidding by opening up that border and allowing people to come in. People that we do not know who they are and where they’re from.”
