    Typical Republicans – create an issue themselves and then try to blame everyone else for it. They literally do not know the meaning of “working together to solve a problem.” At least I’ve been hearing some of their constituents are finally waking up to the fact that their politicians have done absolutely nothing this session to try to solve problems.

    For a bunch of representatives who supposedly hate “sOciALisM”, they sure are living a socialist lifestyle— free healthcare, everything provided for them off taxpayers’ backs, while accomplishing absolutely nothing.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:

    WASHINGTON — A monthslong GOP campaign to oust Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas collapsed in the House on Tuesday after Democrats and a trio of skeptical Republicans voted to reject a resolution to impeach him over his handling of the southern border.

    The vote was 214-216, making a stunning blow for Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., and House Republicans who have blamed the Biden administration for record migrant crossings and made border security a central campaign issue.

    A member of GOP leadership, Rep. Blake Moore, R-Utah, changed his vote to no at the last minute so that Republicans can bring the issue up again when Majority Leader Steve Scalise, R-La., returns from cancer treatment.

    Gallagher, chairman of the select committee investigating the Chinese Communist Party, was among several Republicans who had expressed skepticism about the impeachment vote during a closed-door meeting Tuesday morning, lawmakers leaving the room told reporters.

    The top four House GOP leaders issued a joint statement opposing a bipartisan Senate deal that would impose tougher asylum and border policies, saying it does not go far enough to stop illegal immigration.

    It is DEAD on arrival in the House,” Speaker Mike Johnson and Majority Leader Steve Scalise, both of Louisiana, Emmer and GOP Conference Chair Elise Stefanik of New York said in their statement.
