Chip Roy Destroyed Mayorkas Lying Butt At House Judiciary Hearing

Chip Roy interrogates Alejandro Maorkas on border

Republican Rep. Chip Roy of Texas had harsh criticism for Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas during a hearing of the House Judiciary Committee on Wednesday. Roy was questioning Mayorkas on his handling of border security and asked if his past testimony was false.

Roy recalled an instance on April 28th, 2022 when he asked if the United States had operational control of the border. Mayorkas responded with “Yes we do.” Roy then referenced the definition of operational control from the Secure Fence Act which he said Mayorkas agreed with having “plain as day”. However, at other times Mayorkas has denied the U.S. had operational control at the border, sharply contradicting his original response.

Lying to Congress can lead to up to five years in federal prison if convicted.
