No matter how tyrant Biden tried to hide it from us, the number of fully vaccinated people contracted with COVID-19 is going up.
In fact, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas tested positive for Covid-19 on Tuesday, just a few days after he attended an event with Democrat President Joe Biden.
Mayorkas was tested as part of a routine-pre travel protocol. He was expected to visit Colombia with Secretary of State Antony Blinken but is now isolated at home.
Espinosa says Mayorkas is experiencing mild congestion and was fully vaccinated.
DHS spokeswoman Marsha Espinosa then tweeted:
“Secretary Mayorkas tested positive this morning for COVID-19 after taking a test as part of routine pre-travel protocols. He is experiencing only mild congestion; he is fully vaccinated and will isolate and work at home per CDC protocols and medical advice.”
Espinosa added that contract tracing was underway.
Contact tracing is underway.

Here’s an excerpt from Fox News reports:
“The diagnosis comes after Mayorkas attended the 40th Annual National Peace Officers’ Memorial Service at the U.S. Capitol alongside President Biden on Saturday. Additionally, images from the event show Mayorkas stood close to Biden and First Lady Jill Biden at one point during the outdoor event, without masks.
Mayorkas has been in the spotlight in recent months for the Biden administration’s handling of the crisis at the southern border. More than 200,000 migrants were encountered in July and August — and the administration has been continuing a limited use of Title 42 public health protections to return migrants due to the risk of COVID-19.
However, the administration has come under fire for releasing migrants into the interior, often without testing for the virus. Chris Magnus, Biden’s pick to lead Customs and Border Protection, on Tuesday told lawmakers that he was committed to making sure migrants are tested before being released into the U.S.”
Mayorkas has been the source of much controversy and scandal in the Biden administration as the U.S. Southern Border has fallen apart under his watch with hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens pouring into the U.S. every month.
