Scalise on the Border: Most Dem Mayors Want to Solve This Problem, It’s Biden Who Doesn’t Want to Fix It

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
BARTIROMO: “The big issue of the day is a wide open border we know more than a dozen GOP governors headed to the southern border this weekend as House Republicans are pushing for a vote on two articles of impeachment against homeland security Alejandro Mayorkas as early as next week. Here’s with the House Speaker Mike Johnson told me on Friday.”

Johnson: “Everybody knows that mayorkas is a mitigated disaster as a cabinet secretary. I believe he’s the worst in the history of the country. Impeachment is a really important and serious measure for the house to take it is in a heavy responsibility that we have on the Constitution. But when someone refuses to comply with the oath of office and when they intentionally break existing federal law and they like to Congress it is a great breach of public trust.”

BARTIROMO: “You conservative voices like The Wall Street Journal editorial board encouraging the GOP to drop the campaign against dh mayorkas altogether that he achieves nothing and sets a bad precedent they are advocating for a deal between the GOP and President Biden, congressman what do you say to that?”

SCALISE: “I wish there was a deal that actually secure the border but everything that you hear now that will be coming out of the Senate which started a baseline of 5000 people coming in legally as being okay, it was Jay Johnson, Barack Obama’s homeland security secretary who said a thousand people coming across illegally is a crisis. Today we have thousands coming across. President Biden could stop this all on his own, you know it, President Biden knows it he chooses not to he wanted open border, secretary mayorkas job to secure the homeland has failed miserably in the mission and he comes to testify before Congress at the border secure and everybody knows that that is a lie. This impeachment is the next step will ultimately President Biden could solve this problem, we have a bill hr2 that we passed out of the house that was the cure America’s border that’s really where the conversation needs to start if you want to be serious about fixing the problem and by the way most Americans and most Democrat mayors want to solve this problem, it is Joe Biden that does not want to fix the problem at all.”
