I wrote earlier today about Sen. Ted Cruz taking Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas apart over his mishandling of national security issues (it’s not a mishandling as much as this administration has intentionally left the border porous).
Cruz said Mayorkas should resign:
TED CRUZ: “You’re willing to let children be RAPED to follow political orders…”
SEC. MAYORKAS: “What the senator said was revolting. I’m not going to address it.”
TED CRUZ: “Your refusal to do your JOB is revolting!” 🔥🔥🔥

In fairness to Mayorkas, perhaps he was a bit shell-shocked by the time Republican Sen. John Kennedy said hello to him in his own way, and the DHS secretary wasn’t ready for it. This is pretty funny:

Leave it to national treasure Sen. Kennedy to give Mayorkas a moment without even saying a word!
He should have kissed him like Michael kissed Fredo

He was afraid Kennedy was going to ask another basic question that he wouldn’t be able to answer https://t.co/LVxJqFKhGG

Insisting the border is totally secure when he knows it’s not has clearly made Mayorkas a little jumpy.
