McCarthy to Mayorkas: Resign or Face Impeachment

Original Article

Posted By: Dreadnought, 11/23/2022 12:22:52 AM

Rep. Kevin McCarthy, who is expected to be the next House speaker, gave Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas an ultimatum: resign or face an impeachment inquiry. “Our country may never recover from Secretary Mayorkas’ dereliction of duty. This is why today I am calling on the secretary to resign,” McCarthy said. “If Secretary Mayorkas does not resign, House Republicans will investigate every order, every action and every failure. And we will determine whether we can begin an impeachment inquiry.” The stark warning is a significant change in tone from McCarthy

McCarthy's talking tough....meaning he doesn't think he has the Speakership clinched. If he gets the chair, he'll turn back into a RINO.

#2 - So eager to talk tough that must have forgotten that he's already on record as saying there will be no impeachments when the Republicans take the House.

Kevin's tough talk had better be backed up with ACTION when / if he assumes the Speaker's Throne, if he doesn't there might be a couple of million people who will remind him of his speechifying

Well, talk is cheap but let's see some action to back it up. The American people are tired of being spoonfed a bunch of meaningless words, only when we are seeing some kind of dedicated action to remedy a host of Dem instigated problems that have ruined this country will at least some form of faith begin to be restored. Until then we will believe it when we see it!

I would not count on McCarthy following through. He’s not what he seems and I doubt once he has the gavel in his hands that he will come down hard on the Biden administration. Frank wouldn’t like it and he knows once he sits in that big chair, no one is going to push him out.

Conservative Patriots to McCarthy - Resign from Congress, Traitor. McCarthy is demonstrating how much contempt he has for us if thinks his fake tough talk is going to fool us. He really thinks we are stupid marks. If he is elected Speaker by the usual gang of republican congressmen who are very adept in the Art of Betraying the voters who elected them to Congress, (Odds are 99 to 1 McCarthy will be the next Speaker), he will do absolutely nothing against his best buds in corruption, the Communist Death Democrats. Republican Save our Republic Scorecard so far: We have McConnell who will continue as Senate Minority Leader in spite of his sabotaging republican candidates and losing us the Senate. The greedy, corrupt, lying, Rona McDaniel, who also sabotaged republican candidates, looks likely to continue at her well paying job as head of the Republican Party (how in hell did this beefy, melon head, venal, troll ever get to her position?) and we will have the worthless, stealth democrat McCarthy as Speaker. So the question must be asked - What in hell good is the republican party at this point for anything? Expiration Date has been reached in this election. The definition of stupid is doing the same thing over and over again, like donating and voting for the republicans, and expecting a different result, like keeping promises made to We, the people, to fight like hell for our Freedoms and Republic when these republicans get into office, which time and again the republicans join hands with the Communist Death Democrats to impose a totalitarian rule over us. No more voting for the lesser Evil (republicans) because in the end we are still voting for Evil. Time to leave. Now where to we go to continue our fight?

Congress writes the laws, mostly open ended allowing the executive to make rules and policies. None of this is the fault of Congress From 2016 to ‘18 there was a chance for reform. Nothing. If Mayorkas is impeachable, he was dutifully following the executive’s direction. The Senate won’t convict anyways.

Is "Conservative Patriots" now a cover phrase for serial Republican bashers? Is ordering McCarthy to resign any different than supporting a democrat majority in and control of the House? Nice democrat strategy.

Disney’s latest animated feature, the gay, green Strange World, just tanked at the box office. Gee, what a shock. You mean no one wants to waste their Thanksgiving weekend having their children prematurely sexualized by groomers with a side order of enviro-guilt? This should do wonders for Disney’s already cratered stock price. Strange World cost anywhere from $150 million to $180 million to produce. Add at least another $50 to $100 million to promote, and what you have here is a straight-up catastrophe, a quarter of a billion — with a “B” — write-off.

Elon Musk fired several dozen Twitter employees overnight on Wednesday, most of whom were engineers, two people familiar with the company's actions told Insider. The firings came as a surprise inside Twitter, the people said. Musk said in an all-hands meeting earlier this week that there would be no more layoffs at the company. The employees fired overnight on Wednesday were informed they were being laid off for performance reasons, and were given one month of severance, one of the people said. The termination process was similar to that experienced by previously laid-off employees, the two people said:

As of Thursday afternoon, a little more than 3 million users had participated in the poll, and just under three-quarters had voted in favor of the amnesty. “The people have spoken. Amnesty begins next week. Vox Populi, Vox Dei,” Musk said, touting the Latin phrase meaning “the voice of the people

Remember when leftists were melting down after Elon Musk took over Twitter? Democrats and media activists were stunned and irate, insisting this would lead to rampant white supremacy on the platform. After there was a notable uptick in the use of the n-word on the site, they cited this as proof that Musk’s focus on free speech was only going to embolden the racist dregs of society. All this despite the fact that this was occurring before the new CEO even made any changes to the algorithms or content moderation policy. But when it became clear that the increase was due to a few hundred accounts – most of them bots

Gov. Brian Kemp (R) has turned his efforts toward boosting Republican Herschel Walker in the contentious U.S. Senate runoff battle in Georgia. The popular governor, fresh off a decisive victory over Democrat Stacey Abrams, is now urging Georgians to turn out for Walker as he seeks to unseat incumbent Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-GA) on December 6. Democrats have secured 50 seats for next year, enough to give them majority power given Vice President Kamala Harris would cast tiebreaking votes. However if Walker wins and Republicans gain 50 seats, Democrats would be forced into power-sharing agreements

He also linked to the report of the Obama DOJ, noting that the shooting was in self-defense. That set off people on the left even more because they had to deal with the reality that their beliefs that they may have held about that shooting for years were fiction.

Joe Biden sees himself as the only Democrat who can 'slay' Donald Trump in the 2024 election, it has been claimed. The 80 year-old president regularly reminds people he is the only person who has beaten Trump, and he remains confident that he's the man to repeat that feat in 2024, The New York Times reported. Biden previously billed himself as a single term transitional president who'd bridge the gap between the chaos of the Trump years, and the emergence of a younger Democrat successor. But he's since announced a plan to run again in 2024, despite already being the oldest president in US history.  'Why would he get out now?'

In September, Secretary of Labor Marty Walsh brokered a tentative deal between rail unions and rail carriers while President Joe Biden and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg were out of town. Union concerns centered around sick time and scheduling, and Walsh’s work appeared to have avoided a strike that had the potential for far-reaching consequences on the American economy. However, the deal has fallen to pieces, and the clock is ticking as a December 9 strike looms. On Monday, members of SMART Transportation Division,
