Unworthy for office

When Arkansas’ entire House delegation voted with Mike Johnson back in February to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, they proved themselves unworthy of the office they hold and the pledge they swore.

The gaggle we sent to Washington chose to deflect well-earned criticism of their collective failure to pass an adequate budget needed to humanely tighten security the entire length of our 2,000-mile-long southern border, as if that was their wish.

But why fix problems when you can use them to bludgeon the sitting president and advantage a former president who attempts, even to this day, to overthrow our democracy?

Watching our delegation is painful, particularly knowing that in the D.C. climate any representation we might wish for has been frozen in a contemporary Dark Ages, thanks to congressmen who prefer a president who genuflects before the murderous dictator Vladimir Putin.

In the meantime, the Republican-controlled House has persisted in denying Homeland Security resources it needs to address difficult conditions at our southern border.

Our entire congregational delegation has bought wholeheartedly into a cynical scheme meant to prepare for the grand entrance of their very own criminally charged presidential candidate, who will save “white” people from the masses hungering for opportunities and freedoms the entire Arkansas delegation threatens.

In its vote to ruin Mayorkas, Arkansas’ delegation chose to deflect blame from themselves to a government servant rather than face their own persistent demolition of good governance.

Our failing congressional delegation chooses to ignore plausible solutions to the border crises they perpetuate by making certain to damage the Biden administration in order to advance the one person who has proved himself the greatest danger to this nation since the Civil War and the subsequent Jim Crow era.
