Republicans contend Mayorkas is guilty of “high crimes and misdemeanors” that amount to a “willful and systemic refusal to comply with the law” on immigration and a “breach of the public trust.” Impeachment, they say, is “Congress’s only viable option.”
“Alejandro N. Mayorkas willfully and systemically refused to comply with the immigration laws, failed to control the border to the detriment of national security, compromised public safety, and violated the rule of law and separation of powers in the Constitution, to the manifest injury of the people of the United States,” the impeachment resolution says.
Ever since taking control of the House in 2023, Republicans have pushed to impeach Mayorkas. Sunday’s announcement comes as their other impeachment drive — to impeach Democratic President Joe Biden in relation to his son Hunter’s business dealings — has struggled to advance.
What do these representatives impeaching Mayorkas have to say about Abbott claiming Texas law supersedes federal law and the armed convoy going down there to shoot up some of them there Messicans?
Probably nothing to say. It seems to me the GOP is simply addicted to the idea of impeaching somebody … anybody … and just want their fix NOW.
Not kidding here either. It’s like watching a drug/alcohol addict chase their addiction until they die.

Always important to keep in mind that the GOP using impeachment for bullshit reasons started back with Clinton in the 90s.
Buttigieg is from Indiana.
Nothing good has ever been produced by the GADOT or the greater world of Georgia transportation officials. They’re one of the most moronic such organizations in the country and none of their membership will ever go on to do anything meaningful.

If you’re from Georgia, you know that the GADOT are total morons.
Just look at the southeastern rail corridors. Brightline from Miami to Orlando with extension already planned to Jacksonville. Fast rail service being developed from Raleigh to DC. And what’s GADOT doing to be part of the future for the region?
Well, nothing. Literally nothing. Making the ATL->SAV Amtrak cooridor take as long as possible. But at least they’re going to gift a few dozen millions of dollars to NS and the major cargo shippers by raising the Talmadge (edit: while already planning its BILLION dollar replacement).
Well, surely they’re out there in Atlanta fixing the unspeakable terrible congestion by helping pay for common-sense, costsaving mass transit, right?
Nope. More highways.
How about rural GA? Are they at least making sure the state roads are safe and well-maintained? Wait, why are you walking away?
When FLORIDA’s transportation planners are making you look bad, you’ve got a fucking problem.
