Biden DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas claimed during a Senate committee hearing that members of the United States Senate may not oppose him or question the way he runs the DHS because he is the child of a holocaust survivor whose entire family was wiped out by the Nazis which, apparently, places him above reproach.
"I think that your performance is despicable," Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) told Mayorkas during a Senate hearing last October, in which Mayorkas was grilled about his handling of the DHS, which has opened America's borders to an invasion and has failed to discipline taxpayer-funded employees who've shown support for America's declared enemies.

"And I think the fact that you are not willing to provide answers to this committee is absolutely atrocious," Hawley added.
In response, Mayorkas offered up an itemized list of problems that he had with the way Senator Hawley had addressed him, including a claim that Hawley had disrespected the relative of holocaust victims – a big no-no.
"Senator Hawley takes an adversarial approach to me in this question and perhaps he doesn't know my own background," Mayorkas said. "Perhaps he does not know that I am the child of a holocaust survivor. Perhaps he does not know that my mother lost almost all her family at the hands of the Nazis."
"And so, I find his adversarial tone to be entirely misplaced," Mayorkas went on, using the age-old tactic of weaponizing his claims about his lineage to demonize anyone who questions him.
"I find it to be disrespectful of me and my heritage. And I do not expect an apology, but I did want to say what I just articulated," Mayorkas concluded.
Unsurprisingly, Hawley was not permitted to respond to Mayorkas or his ridiculous pimping of the Holocaust and his own family members.
