“The attacks on Omar have been steady and insidious, and it’s more obvious now than ever what they’re based on. When Crenshaw and Trump connect her to 9/11, and when commentators on Fox News question whether she’s ‘American first' and suggest that her hijab indicates she doesn’t follow the U.S. Constitution, the religious bigotry is clear. It’s no longer possible to deny.”

U.S. Rep. Dan Crenshaw physically applauded calls by a former top Trump administration official on Thursday night to impeach President Joe Biden if Republicans regain the majority in November and was even more committed to impeaching Biden’s Homeland Security Secretary.

The Houston Republican said at a meeting in Montgomery County that Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has deliberately violated the law by not enforcing immigration laws resulting in a historic surge in border crossings.

“I think you can make the same argument for impeaching Biden,” Crenshaw said in an interview.

But Crenshaw was quick to add that politically it’s probably not a good idea because Vice President Kamala Harris would then become president.

While fringes of the Republican Party have been calling for Biden’s impeachment since his first day in office, Crenshaw’s comments show that there is growing acceptance of the idea with other Republicans, even if political hurdles remain.
