Mississippi Republican Rep. Michael Guest criticized Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas on Wednesday for refusing to define how many illegal encounters on the southern border would make a “bad day” for the Customs and Border Patrol (CBP).

The guest expressed concern that illegal immigration to the United States has increased considerably Majorca, and the Biden administration in general, during a House Homeland Security Committee hearing audition Wednesday. Guest noted that the former Trump administration DHS secretary could define what would be a bad or good day for CBP based on the number of illegal encounters, and asked Mayorkas if he could do the same.

I WILL SEE:

“We do not minimize the importance of the challenge on the southwest border and we are intensely focused on it,” Mayorkas said in response to Guest’s question.

“Is there a number?” The guest replied. “I asked for a number, that was my question. What number for you represents a bad day? Do you refuse to answer the question?”

“We do not minimize the importance of the challenge on the southwest border,” Mayorkas replied.

“That was not my question, Mr. Mayorkas. I asked a simple question: give me a number. And you are obstructing, refusing to answer the question. What’s the number?”

“I have answered your question,” Mayorkas replied.

DHS did not immediately respond to a query about how many encounters would make a “bad day” for CBP.
