Washington, D.C. – Joe Biden’s Secretary of Homeland Security had a tough time explaining Biden’s amnesty and open borders agenda to lawmakers last week.

Senator Rob Portman (R-OH) called Mayorkas out for vastly overstating the number of illegal immigrants who have been removed under Joe Biden. Mayorkas claimed that illegal immigrants who are found to not have a valid asylum claim are “promptly removed.” But 1.2 million illegal immigrants have been issued a final order for removal while only 59,000 were removed last year.

Mayorkas was forced to admit that Biden Administration “should remove individuals who have made their claim.”

And it’s not just Republican lawmakers calling out the Biden Administration’s border lies. Even The Washington Post called out Mayorkas’ false claim that illegal immigrants are “promptly removed.” They gave Mayorkas three Pinocchio’s for that lie.

Ultimately, Sec. Mayorkas’ disastrous week on Capitol Hill created more questions about Biden’s border crisis than answers.

What are Senate Democrats doing to hold their party leaders accountable?
