This is why we are losing our country -- the GOP is a party that stands with the liberals!!!

These 8 Republicans voted against Rep Greene's Mayorkas impeachment push: 'Not a high crime or misdemeanor'

House Democrats, with the help of a eight Republicans, voted down an effort led by GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene in the House of Representatives to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas in a straight up or down vote.

The eight Republicans who joined Democrats in the 209-201 vote killing the effort included Reps. Ken Buck, R-Colo., Darrell Issa, R-Calif., Tom McClintock, R-Calif., Patrick McHenry, R-N.C., John Duarte, R-Calif., Virginia Foxx, R-N.C., Cliff Bentz, R-Ore., and Mike Turner, R-Ohio.

Additionally, 11 Democrats and 12 Republicans did not vote on the measure.

Greene voiced her displeasure in a video posted on X, saying that the eight Republicans voted to "protect" Mayorkas from impeachment, which she called, "unbelievable."..............

Haven't you noticed? There will always be just enough Republicans (whatever number is needed) who will vote against any measure which holds a Democrat accountable. Likewise, there will always be just enough Republicans who will vote against any measure that significantly changes the status quo of government operation (see McCain giving the "thumbs down" to eliminating Obamacare).

This is a feature, not a bug.

Come on man! That's just a coincidence! Just because it gets repeated over and over again doesn't really mean anything!

Welp... i mean is it his crime that he's an incompetent boob? That much is not in question. But that's not illegal and maybe they don't want to have impeachment become even more of a partisan political tool than it already is?

Even if he was impeached in the House, there wouldn't be enough votes to remove him in a Democrat CONTROLLED SENATE!

That may be, but impeachment in the House would indicate solidarity by the GOP and they failed to do so. The clear message sent is that the DEMS can continue to get away with the crisis at our border!

Great, so he'd beat impeachment and then get so say he was acquitted. Yay.

What, 7-8 MILLION counts of aiding the commission of a felony (invading the US/illegal entry) through mis/non-feasance isn't enough of a High Crime?

What does it take?

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
