Mayorkas slams claim VP Harris ‘laughed’ at border questions as ‘unfair’

Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas got into a heated exchange with a Republican congressman Thursday when asked about Vice President Kamala Harris laughing off questions about going to the US-Mexico border.

Mayorkas scolded Rep. Ralph Norman (R-SC) and called his inquiry “quite unfair and disrespectful.” Harris has on at least two occasions laughed when asked about visiting the border as illegal crossings hit a two-decade high — most recently when she snarked to NBC reporter Lester Holt, “And I haven’t been to Europe!” when asked about a border trip.
