(Jacob Bruns, Headline USA) Longtime Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, laid out the Republican Party’s top priorities heading into 2023, assuming that they gain ground in both the Senate and the House of Representatives.
Cruz first laid out his plans to undo the Democrats’s disastrous attempt to militarize the Internal Revenue Services while adding nearly 100,000 new agents to the already-bloated bureaucracy, Todd Starnes reported.
“The first thing we should do is defund the 87,000 new IRS agents that the Democrats just passed,” he said, alluding to the radical new rule.
Next, he suggested that Congress take steps to secure America’s southern border, which has been effectively abandoned by President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris and their failed administration.
“I think the second thing we should do is impeach Alejandro Mayorkas, the secretary of Homeland Security, for utter dereliction of duty.”
Lastly, Cruz suggested that Congress also fire Attorney General Merrick Garland, whose militarized FBI has spent the past two years raiding former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home for political theater, and also punishing parents for being concerned with their children’s exposure to sexual degeneracy at public schools.
“And I think the third thing we should do is impeach Merrick Garland for politicizing and corrupting the Department of Justice and the FBI and turning them into the political storm troopers for the Biden White House and the DNC,” Cruz said.
The idea of impeaching Garland has already been floated by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., who filed articles of impeachment against the AG back in August.
“Merrick Garland has abused his position of power as the attorney general to politically persecute Joe Biden’s enemies,” Greene said from the Capitol before filing the impeachment resolution.
“The whole purpose of this is to prevent President Trump from ever being able to hold office.”
