Kirstjen Nielsen Is Our Duke Of The Week
By Kate Riga | June 23, 2018 9:00 am
DHS Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen had a tough week.
She was determined to start it off with a bang, holding a press conference to set the record straight as Americans were inundated with pictures and recordings of distraught children ripped from their parents at the border.
But throughout the press conference, Nielsen lied over and over again, showing an utter lack of compassion for the panicked, isolated babies and their equally panicked parents.
A common theme of her remarks were variations on: This administration did not create a policy of separating families at the border. This is a lie, as the practice is the direct result of the administrations zero-tolerance immigration policy for migrants who cross the border without documentation.
She also took a page out of Trumps playbook and attempted to place the blame on Congress, specifically Democrats. This makes sense because everyone knows that the real power rests with the party shut out of both Congressional majorities and the White House.
