Here is Why Rep. Blake Moore Flipped From Yea to Nay on Impeaching Mayorkas https://resistthemainstream.com/here-is-why-rep-blake-moore-flipped-from-yea-to-nay-on-impeaching-mayorkas/ There were four Republicans who voted no tonight against impeaching Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. Reps. Mike Gallagher (R-Wis.), Tom McClintock (R-CA), Ken Buck (R-Colo.) and House Vice Conference Chairman Blake Moore (R-Utah) – a member of the Republican leadership. But Moore’s “nay” vote against impeaching Mayorkas deserves an asterisk. He’s not really against impeaching Mayorkas. Moore voted no so the Republican effort to impeach Mayorkas could live to fight another day. Moore was on the board as a yea in favor of impeaching Mayorkas. But the GOP miscalculated how many yea votes that they had – as well as how many Democrats present and available to vote no. The current breakdown in the 431 member House is 219 Republicans to 212 Democrats with four vacancies. Republicans can only lose three votes. But that’s if all of their members are present. House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) has not voted all year due to cancer treatments. Scalise tells FOX he will be back soon. So as soon as the Mayorkas impeachment vote went to 215-215, the gig was up for impeaching Mayorkas.
