Sen. Scott tells Mayorkas ‘DO YOUR DANG JOB’ on the border

WASHINGTON, D.C. (FLV) – Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla., flamed Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas for his handling of migration into the U.S.

Scott responded to remarks from the Biden administration official on a “broken, outdated immigration system in place for over two decades” being to blame for the “current situation” at the southern border with Mexico.

“I cannot overemphasize that our current situation is the outcome of Congress leaving a broken, outdated immigration system in place for over two decades,” he said. “Despite unanimous agreement that we desperately need legislative reform.”

Scott replied with a screenshot enumerating Mayorkas’ department’s responsibilities, which include “counterterrorism, cybersecurity, aviation security, border security, port security, maritime security, administration and enforcement of our immigration laws,” and more.

“Is this a joke?” Scott said. “Let’s look at @SecMayorkas‘ job description on @DHSgov‘s website…’border security.'”

“Take responsibility and DO YOUR DANG JOB,” he said.

“I don’t understand why @JoeBiden and @SecMayorkas want a completely open border,” Scott said in another tweet Tuesday. “They’ve created a MASSIVE border crisis, leaving our communities unsafe and risking our brave law enforcement officers’ lives. Ending #Title42 will only make it worse.”

Title 42, a rule enacted by the Trump administration during the coronavirus pandemic to more easily and swiftly deport illegal aliens from the country, is set to expire Thursday.

As that policy expires, the Biden administration announced new rules on asylum that would reportedly “ramp up swift deportations” of migrants crossing the southern border.

Migrants would be disqualified from protections in the U.S. if they did not provide proof that they requested refugee status in another country while traveling to the U.S.
