Everybody with a brain saw this coming, sir. We all saw this coming.

On April 19, next week, get the popcorn.

Do you think the parents and families who will continue to lose their children, their brothers, their sisters to fentanyl will take comfort in knowing that DHS has at least added more to the massive money already spent by this…

On April 19, next week, get the popcorn--Alejandro Mayorkas comes before our committee, and it's going to be fun.

Your job IS to protect the homeland--and one of those obvious duties is to secure the United States' sovereign borders, and to implement the laws duly passed by Congress.

Identifying or calling someone a liar is unacceptable in this committee.

These aren't just graphs, they are not just numbers... they are American families.

However, you have not secured our borders--and Mr. Secretary, I believe you have done so intentionally.

Not only have you lied under oath, you just admitted your own incompetence.

We will hand it to Jim Jordan and let Jim do what Jim does best.

The reason that I agreed to sign on to these articles of impeachment... is because of the dereliction of duty.

I do hope you have come here today ready to be honest with the American people, because if you are bold enough to make these policy decisions, you should be brave enough to own up to them and their consequences.

You make it very clear, Mr. Secretary, that you have known all along, according to the definition that is written in the law passed by the Congress, that you do not have operational control.

You told Chip Roy, Congressman Roy, yes, I have operational control by that definition. Then later, under oath, you admit no one has ever had control by that definition.

You are not doing a good job, sir.

We will expose Mr. Mayorkas's dereliction of duty and his intentional destruction of our country through the open southern border.

You just admitted you have no clue about the central strategy of the cartels you have created by your open border.

So if we are going to stop the fentanyl crisis and if we are going to stop the cartels, then we need to stop the exportation of assault weapons to Mexico from this country.

I come to the House floor today with a heavy and grieving heart for my home State of Tennessee. No one should ever have to endure what the Covenant School community has gone through. I know that my colleagues here today understand how…

Let the record reflect that all witnesses agree that mismanagement was occurring.

Our Nation's critical infrastructure and cybersecurity are increasingly under attack by malicious actors who seek to extort and do harm to the American people. Hospitals, financial institutions, utilities, and government agencies are all…

I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: Page 9, line 4, strike ``and''. Page 9, line 9, strike the punctuation after ``event'' and insert ``…

I think the State Department has made is abandoning the asylum cooperation agreements that were negotiated with Guatemala, El Salvador, and Honduras under the previous Administration.

I was encouraged to hear in your testimony that you want to restore Congress's pivotal role in foreign policy process.

This was supposed to be a full committee, but as you can see the Democrats are not here.
