wanted the public to know he wasn’t smiling Wednesday as he faced intense criticism from Republicans over his job performance.
One Republican called him the “most dishonest” witness he’d seen. Another GOP lawmaker fumed that Mr. had no answers for basic questions about what’s happened to terrorism suspects caught at the border, or what’s happened to the 2.1 million illegal immigrants caught and released on President Biden’s watch.
When Rep. Victoria Spartz, Indiana Republican, chastised him for smiling through the stonewalling, he’d had enough.appeared before the House Judiciary Committee with the shadow of impeachment hanging over him. Committees are building the case, accusing him of having lied to Congress and flouted numerous laws and court rulings as he’s overseen record-shattering levels of chaos at the southern border.“We are dealing with a completely broken immigration system,” he said.
