Hawley grills Mayorkas over DHS employee who celebrated Hamas terror attack
Fox News
Senator Josh Hawley challenged Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas over his agency continuing to employ a worker who praised Hamas terrorists.
After asking about the prospect of revoking visas from foreign students calling for the destruction of Israel and Jewish people, Hawley read one such social media post and asked for Mayorkas’ opinion on the rhetoric.
