During a hearing yesterday, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas claimed President Biden has “effectively managed” the southern border of the U.S (managed to turn it into a complete disaster). Mayorkas also naturally blamed the “previous administration” for the problems at the border.
Today Republican Rep. Chip Roy of Texas had seen and heard enough of Mayorkas’ gaslighting and repeatedly debunked every claim the DHS secretary was making. This is something:
.@RepChipRoy goes NUCLEAR on DHS Secretary Mayorkas when he claims that the United States has "operational control" over the southern border.

Mayorkas managed to remain smug throughout the beating, but you know he felt it, whether he’d admit it or not.
Watch this, **all of it**. As a family is laying their son to rest today because of the fentanyl coming over our border. He is just one of the MANY faces @RepChipRoy is speaking for. https://t.co/zwRfMA68ge

This was amazing. @chiproytx served facts and MYORKAS smugly laughed it off. https://t.co/8mBDTJ4SCM

Also somebody needs to tell Rep. Nadler that calling out a government official’s lies is not “slander”:

Additionally, it won’t surprise you to know the morale is low at the Border Patrol. The only thing that’s surprising is that Mayorkas admitted it to Rep. Victoria Spartz:
MAYORKAS: "The morale in U.S. Customs and Border Protection, in the Border Patrol, is low. There is no question." pic.twitter.com/PnbQrzLABl

Well at least he was honest about that.
