Commentary: GOP Rep. Cammack—Mayorkas Told Lawmakers They Won’t Like ‘Who Comes Next’ if He’s Impeached

Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas may have reached the point—like in every ’90s detective TV show right before the end—when the culprit starts admitting to all his crimes.

This from westernjournal.com.

Mayorkas has been saying the quiet part out loud a lot lately, and it is both concerning and downright sinister.

On Thursday, the secretary admitted on Fox News’ Special Report that…

[R]eports of over 70 percent of migrants being released

into the U.S. daily would not surprise me at all.

He told host Bret Baier:

And I will tell you that when individuals are released, they are released into immigration enforcement proceedings. They are on alternatives to detention. And we have returned or removed a record number of individuals. We are enforcing the laws that Congress has passed.

Citing three Border Patrol sources who were present Fox News reported:

[O]n Monday, Mayorkas confessed to Border Patrol agents during a meeting in Eagle Pass, Texas, that the current rate of release for migrants caught illegally crossing the southern U.S. border is actually above 85 percent.

The National Border Patrol Council confirmed the story as it responded to a post about the meeting by Fox News’ Bill Melugin.

The union said on X:

Your sources are correct.

During this meeting, [union president] Brandon Judd told Mayorkas that Americans have the right to know the facts about what’s going on at the border.

It was at that point Mayorkas admitted that ‘over 85%’ of the people illegally crossing our border are being released.

According to Rep. Kat Cammack of Florida:

But probably the most sinister of all the Mayorkas confessions allegedly happened at a closed-door meeting with House Republicans.

According to the congresswoman:

[W]hen GOP members told the secretary behind closed doors that ‘you’re getting ready to be impeached,’ he responded, ‘You’re not going to like who comes next.’

Cammack recounted the story to Fox News’ Harris Faulkner on Monday, eliciting a shocked “Whoa!” from the Outnumbered host.

Cammack continued:

I asked him if that was a threat, and he just smiled.

This man is dangerous, he knows exactly what he’s doing and he is two-faced. We need to get rid of him now.

Faulkner asked:

What did he mean, ‘who comes next’?

“Well, that was the big question,” the congresswoman responded.

Further:

I asked him. I said, ‘Is that a threat?’ And he just smiled, and I thought, ‘This man knows exactly what he’s doing,’

And:

This is 100 percent by design.

They want an open border crisis, whether it is for an election,

whether it’s for future votes as they work to get rid

of citizenship as a requirement for voting, we’re not sure.

Rep. Cammack concluded:

But he was very, very clear in what he said, and there were other members in the room.

So I will never forget that, and as we go to impeach him for his negligence, for him destroying our national security and eroding our national sovereignty, that will be top of mind.

Mayorkas may be dangerous, but he is almost just as certainly right about Republicans not liking who would come next. Can the Left give the job to anyone worse?

Again, as Rep. Cammack said:

[T]he crisis at the border isn’t happening because of Mayorkas’ ineptitude;

it’s happening as part of a deliberate plan,

the full extent of which none of us may as yet understand.

What the homeland security secretary said does not sound like a casual comment—it’s a chilling warning.

Although Mayorkas definitely deserves justice, it’s almost guaranteed we would get someone just as bad, or even worse, as his replacement.

As in those old detective shows, putting one criminal away doesn’t change the plot line—there’s always another evildoer in the next episode.

Final thoughts: No, Mayorkas is not the cause; he’s merely following directions…likely compromised, being bribed, blackmailed, or threatened in some way. Doubtless, this has the smell of Barack Hussein Obama all over it.
