Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is insulted that people are accusing him of intentionally not enforcing our nation’s immigration laws.

In a puff profile in the New Yorker, Mayorkas tells his interviewer, “I’m in disbelief, just frankly. As someone who has spent twenty years in government, twelve years of which were spent as a federal prosecutor, the accusation that I’ve intentionally chosen not to enforce the laws is beyond the pale.”
