Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA ) and the 11 House impeachment managers will deliver to the Senate on Wednesday the articles of impeachment against DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. With the room under Democrat control, yet, it’s possible that the Senate trial might not even arise. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY ) has made it known that he views the effort as” a sham” and” a new low for House Republicans.” However, it’s Schumer who is the one taking extraordinary activity. In response, Sen. Roger Marshall ( R- KS) was among those who took to the Senate floor to call out the lot leader, as he highlighted how what Schumer is doing has never been done, among other problems.  ,

Marshall argued that a vote to appoint Secretary Mayorkas ‘ impeachment is a vote to keep our territories available at the beginning of his remarks. Marshall brought up victims of illegal immigrants for criminal purposes and argued that a vote like this would carry the fatal line of chaos. It’s a vote that demonstrates to Laken Riley’s family, all of those who have been victims of violent and gruesome crimes committed by illegal aliens, as well as the more than 250 000 people who have died from fentanyl poisoning, that Senate Democrats do n’t care.
Marshall was referring to the 22- yr- old nursing student who was murdered, her accused killer, Jose Antonio Ibarra, being these improperly from Venezuela who had also been arrested earlier.  ,
Given that Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s (R-GA ) interruption forced him to do so, President Joe Biden only referenced Riley in his State of the Union speech last month. In fact, it seems Democrats as a whole “do not care.” Perhaps then, he referred to her as” Lincoln Riley. ” More, Democrats and activists were outraged about how Biden acknowledged the suspect was” an unlawful,” which forced him to eventually walk up his words and tell MSNBC he should have said” illegal.”
Shortly before his ground talk, Marshall’s X account even shared related remarks he made on FOX Business.  ,
Make no mistake: a vote to block Secretary Mayorkas ‘ impeachment is a vote to keep our borders available, not to mention the prosecution of him. We may hold him accountable. photograph. twitter.com/3tnX7LXZdV— Dr. Roger Marshall ( @RogerMarshallMD) April 8, 2024

Marshall also criticized Senate Democrats for refusing to perform their work in addition to bringing up the issues of illegal immigration and illegal immigrant murder that plague the nation.  ,
Disgracefully, this week will bring us a complete political farce that discredits this Chambers ‘ role and the oath we lacked to defend this great nation. Skirting justice, responsibilities, and the very fabric of our republic, the Senate Democratic Leader is taking a traditional determine to conceal from the dangerous border crisis his party has created and embraced,” Marshall said.
As the Republican lawmaker predicted, Schumer is concerned about what the test might show, on a subject that has already become a losing battle for Biden and the Democrats.  ,
Schumer, Marshall said,” Schumer, Marshall, you know, it’s so afraid that if Americans saw Secretary Mayorkas ‘ open trial and his record exposed, it would put a stop to the Democrats ‘ losing the White House and the majority in the Senate.” ” Although Democrats did increase their numbers in the Senate after the 2022 primaries, when retiring Republican Sen. Pat Toomey ( R- PA ) was replaced by Democrat Sen. John Fetterman, they also have a small lot of 51- 49. With the votes they’re defending and looking to win, especially in comparison to 2022, this season appears to be particularly beneficial for Senate Republicans.  ,

They are quite obviously concerned about the upcoming vote, not about the threat our wide-open borders pose to the country’s sovereignty, Marshall continued.
The emigration issue looks especially bad for Biden, and not only does the Senate chart look great for Republicans. In a number of polls, former and potential successor presidents regularly have a clear lead in the area of multiculturalism. This includes the Marquette surveys, which we just covered earlier on Monday, and in which citizens prefer Trump to Biden by a vote of 54 to 27 percent.  ,
This is also Biden’s worst problem, according to RealClearPolling, out of the seven that they include. Only 31.8 percent review of his handling of emigration, while 63.7 percentage approve.  ,
Marshall went after no merely Schumer, but Senate Democrats as a whole”. They are willing to destroy our Constitution and contempt the honor and integrity of the impeachment process that this system has followed and held to a strict standard for more than 200 years, he said of his acquaintances on the other side of the hall. Once highlighting the extraordinary character, he reminded that” in our world’s history, the Senate has not tabled an impeachment test.”
If anyone needs to listen to Marshall’s comments, it might be Sen. Jon Tester, Montana’s vulnerable Democratic incumbent who is up for reelection in November. This is one of the” Toss- Up “races, and yet Tester still said he’s” undecided “on a motion to dismiss the articles of impeachment.  ,

The Republican also cited the justifications for impeaching Mayorkas. Marshall cited the” secretary of state’s” failure to uphold our laws and protect our borders. ” Speaking of the 11 million border counters, he offered” we have 11 million reasons to hold him accountable and impeach him. ” Marshall also included the” nearly 2 million ‘ gotaways’ that have shown up here on U. S. soil under Mayorkas ‘ watch, “adding” he’s not just derelict in his duties, he’s complicit in endangering the safety of every American.”
Particularly since members of the House Committee on Homeland Security played a significant part in this impeachment, it is worthwhile to highlight Marshall’s position on the Senate Committee on Homeland Security. It was that Committee which handled the impeachment, rather than the House Judiciary Committee. Greene, who played a major role in impeaching Mayorkas, is a member of the Committee and is one of , the impeachment managers. Committee Chairman Mark Green ( R- TN) is another impeachment manager.  ,
Additionally, Marshall has suggested a number of pieces of legislation to combat illegal immigration, including a bill that puts an end to taxpayer-funded abortions for illegal immigrants and one that addresses the family members of those who have been the victims of illegal immigrant crime.  ,
