'This is a failure': Marjorie Taylor Greene pitches fit over derailed impeachment effort
Fox News/screen grab

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) complained that her effort to impeach DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas was a "failure" because eight Republicans voted against it.

"Eight Republicans joined with the Democrats, Maria, to kill the articles of impeachment I brought to the floor against Secretary Mayorkas," Greene told Fox News host Maria Bartiromo on Sunday. "And it's absolutely outrageous."

"I mean, we are wondering how many American, how many dead American bodies are going to have to pile up before Republicans in Congress get serious about impeaching Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas," she added. "But Americans called and called. They flooded those congressman's office with phone calls demanding impeachment of Mayorkas."

But Greene insisted that she would not relent.

"I will bring my articles of impeachment back to the floor after we get back from the Thanksgiving break," she explained. "And this time, the Republicans in Congress better deliver different results."
