Summary
Speaker Mike Johnson and the Republicans failed to impeach DHS Secretary Elaine Mayorkas despite the Biden regime s constant inflow of illegals, a wide open border, and somewhere between 13 and 15 million of them crossing that border over the past three years of his illegitimate presidency. That s a city the size of Pittsburgh every month, crossing the border and going who knows where in America. The chairman of the House Committee on Communist China, Congressman Mike Gallagher, refused to support impeachment. Despite the cartel shipments of death across the border, a constant flow, more than 100,000 die of fentanyl each and every year.

I'm Lou Dobbs with The Great America Show, midday update for February 7th, and a lot happening.

Speaker Mike Johnson and the Republicans failed to impeach DHS Secretary Mayorkas
00:00:11.600
despite the Biden regime's constant inflow of illegals, a wide open border,
00:00:17.840
and somewhere between 13 and 15 million of them crossing that border over the past three years
00:00:24.200
of his illegitimate presidency. That's a city the size of Pittsburgh every month,
00:00:30.060
crossing the border and going who knows where in America. The chairman of the House Committee
00:00:35.460
on Communist China, Congressman Mike Gallagher, refused to support impeachment. Despite the
00:00:42.340
cartel shipments of death across the border, a constant flow, more than 100,000 die of fentanyl
00:00:50.020
overdoses each and every year. 100,000 Americans every year killed by fentanyl. The cartel sex-trapping
00:00:59.120
tens of thousands of children vanishing every year. And the illegal immigrants brought into the
00:01:05.360
United States by the cartels by the millions each year. It's troubling that Congressman Gallagher
00:01:11.340
couldn't find himself any path toward aligning himself with anyone but the Biden regime with
00:01:18.680
the communist Chinese and their manufacturing of fentanyl precursors and their close relationship
00:01:25.060
to the Mexican cartels. Gallagher should be ashamed. He should have passed the articles of impeachment.
00:01:33.260
His vote alone would have been sufficient to do so and take the articles to the Senate for trial.
00:01:40.200
Why would any Republican vote against impeachment of Mayorkas? Speaker Johnson should remove Gallagher
00:01:46.560
from the chair of the CCP committee right now. President Trump won the Nevada Republican primary
00:01:53.500
and he wasn't even on the ballot. He wasn't even supposed to show up. Nikki Haley lost big. She did
00:01:59.600
show up. She was on the ballot. Nevada voters instead chose none of the above in order to support Trump,
00:02:08.260
who, as I said, wasn't on the ballot. And that symbolically, at least, means that Trump won and won by
00:02:15.160
hugely, as he would say, by 27 percent. No delegates were at stake. The Nevada caucus is tomorrow.
00:02:23.040
And boy, does that count. And President Trump is expected to win and win big. A big margin in all
00:02:29.880
26 of Nevada's nominating delegates will in all likelihood go straight to him. And President Trump
00:02:37.180
won the endorsement this week of the International Union of Police Associations. It's a big deal and the
00:02:42.800
Trump train is picking up momentum. Our guest today is former Navy SEAL, host of the podcast,
00:02:48.320
The Operator. We take up rising conflicts in the Middle East, the Biden Pentagon, and oh, yes,
00:02:54.300
presidential politics in this crucial election year. Please join us. Thanks. Have a great day.
