Biden DHS Pick Has History Of Providing Political Favors, Received No Republican Votes When Nominated By Obama

Democrats will have to win both U.S. Senate elections in Georgia in order to get Joe Biden’s pick to lead the Department of Homeland Security confirmed, since the last time this particular person was nominated to a position of power, not a single Republican senator voted to confirm him.

Late last month, Biden said he wanted Alejandro Mayorkas to lead DHS, prompting strong criticism from Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR). As The Daily Wire reported at the time, Cotton said Mayorkas was “disqualified” from the position due to his past history of abusing the EB-5 visa program.
