Though Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) is second to no one when it comes to pouring on the class and Southern charm, he’s also not one to mince words when it comes to serious issues like Joe Biden’s unqualified judicial nominees, some of whom seem to be sympathetic towards terroristic causes that are directly detrimental to the existence of the United States and her allies.
Kennedy, as RedState readers will also recall, is also no stranger to doing something we call “killing them with kindness” here in the South, which is exactly what happened to one unfortunate woke climate change activist whose supposed “expertise” on climate matters was obliterated by Kennedy as only he can during a recent Senate Judiciary Committee hearing.

On the issue of impeached Dept. of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, Kennedy has also played no games, as evidenced during a Senate Appropriations Committee hearing Wednesday on Biden’s 2025 budget request for the DHS, where Mayorkas was set to testify.
After taking several minutes to explain in detail why most Republicans in Congress and a majority of the American people don’t trust Mayorkas, Kennedy and Mayorkas got into a somewhat heated exchange over Kennedy’s question about how allowing more illegal immigrants to cross over the border “counts for congressional district reapportionment,” which Kennedy strongly insinuated helps Democrats.
When Mayorkas tried to scold Kennedy for allegedly impugning and “disrespecting” the integrity of the DHS, Kennedy went off:
“Mr. Secretary, you’re using up my time — you do this every single time,” Sen. Kennedy pointed out. “It’s a fact and I know it: that the more people you allow into our country illegally the more people are counted for reapportionment, and the more people that you allow into our country illegally the more people are counted for allocating electoral votes,” he reiterated. “Now maybe that’s a coincidence, but that’s fact. You know that, and you’ve done nothing for four years: nada, zero, zilch.”
Sen. Kennedy still wasn’t done. “The only people I know in this country who are better off today than they were four years ago are illegal immigrants,” he noted. “And that’s as a result of your policy. I don’t hate you for it, I don’t hate anyone, but that’s why you’ve been impeached,” Sen. Kennedy reminded. “And my colleagues may try to cover it up, but they can’t cover up the facts.”
Watch:
A majority of the American people think that, as a result of Sec. Mayorkas and Pres. Biden’s behavior, our southern border is an open bleeding wound.
