Jeh Johnson, the obama-Biden admin's DHS Sec, just busted the media's narrative that Pres Trump is to blame for "kids in cages"! Johnson told The Atlantic's Mary Louise Kelly, "Chain link barriers, partitions, fences, cages, whatever you want to call them, were not invented on January 20, 2017."
Yes, people who are not supposed to be here are going to be apprehended and put into detention centers, for our and their security. We have no idea who these people are coming across the border from over 144 countries. ISIS, while their caliphate is gone, still exists and are vowing to strike against the west. 4 ISIS scumbags were recently caught in Nicaragua on their way here! So illegals young and old are going to be caged up, that's just the way it goes. You libs don't like it then let's make arrangements for them to housed in YOUR HOME on YOUR DIME!
Props to Johnson for being honest. IMO it appears he has respect for what Trump is doing on the border, has respect for our CBP agents he once commanded and is tired of the Left trashing them for doing their job. He could be a partisan hack and attack POTUS like the media and AOC, but he's setting the record straight.
Let's see how quick Speaker Ocasio-Cortez and the rest of the socialist party as well as their propaganda networks correct the record.
This comment from obama's fmr DHS Secretary should scare the hell out of every single American, Left or Right. The number of people who entered the US in just 2 mos alone is the equivalent of the population of the city of Orlando, Florida!
Anyone saying there is not a crisis on the US-Mexico border is a liar. That more or less means every single member of the democrat party, media, special interests are in fact in full support and many times enabling, encouraging if not aiding illegals invading the US. The Left can't win an election fair and square in order to accomplish obama's dream to fundamentally transform the USA, so they're turning a blind-eye to illegal aliens who will change our demographics, which changes the number of Congressional Representatives. You've heard it on this site a million times, you'll hear again and again. The Left wants to do to the entire US what they SUCCESSFULLY did to California, turning into a permanent one party ruled state. CA is a mess, it's coming apart at the seams from out of control spending to encouraging depravity.
This country spends billions protecting other nations and their borders. The ruling class is doing everything in their power to allow people to just stroll across the border and put up roadblocks at every turn against POTUS from securing the border. The govt's first duty is to protect the homeland which means border security. We the border wall up asap and in the meantime US troops patrolling the border repelling invaders. And no democrats I DO NOT CARE how many are genuine in their intentions for a better life. We have veterans and countless Americans living on the streets and in poverty, not to mention the millions who remain unemployed. Let's take care of our own before the rest of the world!
Obama's DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson appeared on MSNBC's Morning Joe and addressed the current state of the southern border. This former obama regime official delivered some tough love (aka the truth) that the southern border is "truly in a crisis" where this network and the very hosts he's speaking with have been saying the opposite. Week after week they defend illegal aliens crossing the border, turn a blind eye to the drugs and weapons coming across, while they condemn the President and his supporters for simply wanting to secure the nation.
So one has to ask, is Johnson a liar, or better yet a racist for saying there is a crisis on the border since the left thinks otherwise!?
Why are democrats denying the crisis on the border? Don't answer because it's clear why. They are utilizing radical leftist strategy created by Cloward and Piven to overwhelm the system (USA), cause a collapse so they can rebuild it their way. Democrats are blatantly turning a blind eye to the invasion on the border because they want illegals in the US. Why? Because illegals are counted in the census the same as US citizens for redistricting which always leans in favor of democrats. That's how they "vote", by their very presence!
Here we have exhibit A proving the detention of illegal alien children and families isn't a new thing. Most conservatives already KNEW under the obama admin children were being kept in OVERCROWDED cages that the media and Left as a whole ignored. The photos going around when this narrative surfaced recently all turned out to be from back in 2014 when Jeh Johnson was running the DHS for obama. Yet somehow Pres Trump is being blamed for everything.
Now Andrea Mitchell chimes in when Johnson says they "got a lot of heat" for expanding family detention... from whom? The media IGNORED this for the most part. There were no satellite trucks parked out in front of detention centers. Glenn Beck stated he more or less begged networks to cover the kids while they all TRASHED him for bringing some toys and food, while sternly calling for the law to be enforced, stop illegals entering the US!
For eight years all we heard was barry soetoro blaming GWB for everything that went wrong during his reign. Trump gets into office now everything obama (and past Presidents) did/ didn't don are all Trump's fault. This mess with immigration is everyone who served in Washington DC's fault since at least the Clinton administration. Progressive republicans and democrats are to blame, especially those ranting how the immigration system is broken. It only appears broken because the people charged with protecting the country choose not to enforce our laws which created the mess.
Obama's former DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson issued a dire warning to the nation: Confederate statues and monuments are a threat to "public safety and homeland security"!
"I salute those in cities and states who are taking down a lot of these monuments for reasons of public safety and security. It's not a matter of political correctness, that's a matter of public safety and homeland security"
That's right America, these things that just sit there day after day, year after year, being pelted by rain, snow, wind, dust, bird sh*t are a threat to your safety and security. Don't worry about ISIS or MS-19 spreading throughout the country like a virus during this clowns tenure as DHS Chief. These statues and monuments that have been around longer than most of us are the threat to mankind!
Here's the sad reality, if the sight of statues, monuments and plaques trigger you into violent rage, or uncontrollable crying seek profession psychiatric help.
Sticks and stones may break your bones, but names will never hurt.
Understand these things, these national security threats are a piece of our history, good and bad. We learn our mistakes and triumphs to be better people. Again, most have been standing longer than any of us have been around. They weren't a problem when they were erected. They weren't a problem when the nation elected the first black man to the presidency, twice. The only reason why they're a problem now is because of political correctness and some nasty people who hold onto the dark side of them support the President who has condemned and denounced them repeatedly. GROW UP!
If it wasn't clear when Comey testified it should be today, after obama's DHS sec Jeh Johnson's testimony, that this quest against Trump of Russian collusion is over. Since there is no evidence of collusion that also means there is no obstruction. How can you obstruct something that never happened!? How can the Pres be guilty of obstruction if it's within his plenary powers to act/ manage his admin as he sees fit?
Democrats and liberals who still hold onto this conspiracy theory should be forced to explain how the Russians interfered with the election if Hillary won the popular vote? Democrats LOVE to remind everyone how she got more votes.. okay true so how did the Russians help Trump if she got more votes?!
Democrats IT'S OVER! But by all means continue making fools of yourselves, it's worked out so well to date!
"We did not see anything that amounted to altering ballot counts or degrading the ability to report election results, nothing out of the ordinary.”
Fake news that the Russians interfered with the election should be put to rest at this point, especially when the DHS Chief is saying there's "no evidence"! After a few recounts Trump has in fact picked up more votes. Hillary lost because she was an absolute horrible candidate, possibly the most corrupt politician to ever run for president. She and the DNC hacked emails were ignored by the fake news media. Unless voters were glued to Twitter and Facebook it was presented like conspiracy. The left is giving far too much credit to make another excuse for Hillary's loss and more importantly delegitimize Trump's administration.
Where were the democrats throwing a fit now when all govt agencies were being hacked since 2012?
Why do they care now, wanting independent investigations, but didn't prior to election day?
Clinton IGNORED the flyover states of the US, relying on progressive run states like NY and CA to hand her the election. Her arrogance and IGNORANCE over the avg voter is why she lost, and frankly this election shows exactly why we have and need the Electoral College!
This obama admin is actively putting Americans in danger. They simply cannot vet Syrian refugees with 100% certainty they pose no threat to Americans because there are no.. NO files, databases or records of any kind to cross reference. Furthermore, Syria has been in full civil war since 2011, they don't have someone sitting at a desk waiting for the US State Dept or DHS to call and say "Hi! Can you send us the file on Ahmad?". And for the unteenth time I will point out 4% (technically its 13%!!) of Syrian refugees polled APPROVE of ISIS.
Jeh Johnson and the majority of dept heads in the obama admin are political activist. They are more concerned with advancing obama's and securing his "legacy" than upholding the oath and duty these people took to protect the homeland.
This incompetent govt is playing right into the Russians hands. They've allowed multiple systems to be hacked and now with the seeds of doubt planted of a rigged election the next logical step is for the obama admin to seize more power bypassing Congress and violating the Constitution by taking over the election system.
Under Article 1 Sec 4 it clearly states:
The Times, Places and Manner of holding Elections for Senators and Representatives, shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof; but the Congress may at any time by Law make or alter such Regulations, except as to the Places of chusing Senators.
There is nothing in the Constitution about the Executive Branch declaring itself all powerful to take control over elections. Will anyone believe the results if this admin is overseeing the election results? As if it's not bad enough with voter fraud and machine being compromised. This is what the Russians want to put more doubt in our govt, create upheaval, discontent and cause chaos in the streets!
Here's an idea how about we go back to good old fashioned paper ballots and taking a page from Iraqi elections where people get their thumbs dyed after they vote rather than machines that can be hacked into from the other side of the planet? Makes too much sense for this Banana Republic
As if it wasn't a big enough slap in the face for Jeh Johnson to have no opinion of sanctuary cities violating federal law this SOB doesn't know who Kate Steinle is either!
The regime knows every single "victim" and the families of other high-profile deaths (Trayvon, Mike Brown, Freddie Gray) but not the white woman killed by an illegal alien. You see anytime the victim is white killed by a minority the obama regime is completely silent. Since an illegal is responsible you can be sure there will be no response. The last thing anyone from the obama regime wants to do is sidetrack their attempts to bring more illegals into the US.
It has been almost 2 weeks since Steinle was murdered by an illegal alien in the cesspool sanctuary city San Francisco and no one from the regime has said anything. It is safe to assume by Johnson's testimony they never heard of her. Had Kate been black the regime and all of the left would be talking about it pushing "BlackLivesMatter". That said IMO there should be no doubt now that the obama regime is racist.
DHS Chief Jeh Johnson has no opinion on a federal laws he has been charged to enforce? WTH is going on in this country anymore. Everything is completely upside down, where the lunatics are clearly running the asylum. This answer alone by Johnson should be enough to initiate impeachment proceedings by Congress. He is an attorney, he knows plenty but is dodging since keeping illegals in the US is all about getting votes for democrats/progressives.
The US is being invaded by thousands of illegal aliens everyday and no one in the obama regime is doing anything to stop it because they don't want to. Cloward and Piven strategy is being played out by this regime using illegal aliens to overwhelm the system. Congress completely useless and impotent will never lift a finger to stop the regime and the military is too busy CYA to uphold their oath.
We're on our own America. Those of you on the border do whatever you have to do. To the handful of oathkeepers in law enforcement it's time to use the "broken immigration" law against those who broke it. The penalties for those who aid and abet illegals is clear, find the loophole and start arresting govt officials helping illegals.
Jeh Johnson took an oath to protect and defend the United States and the Constitution but here he is telling members of the Senate Judiciary committee he more or less doesn't care. He supports obama's lawless illegal executive amnesty which is a direct violation of the oath he took. Illegal aliens are in fact a threat to America economically and socially, but Johnson trivializes their existence. Let's forget about the willful disrespect illegals have toward America for a moment. Johnson's answer to Sen Cornyn shows he is not concerned about the vast number of unknown violent illegal alien criminals who have entered the US and remain in the shadows because they haven't been caught committing a crime yet. He lumps these illegal alien criminals together with those who come here to work; illegals seeking work which in reality are stealing money and jobs from Americans. Johnson also has no problem with the tax cheats and those who are siphoning off the social entitlement system American taxpayers/ workers paid into either.
DHS Sec's blessing of obama's lawlessness is an indictment to breaking the law under 8 US Code Part VIII - General Penalty Provisions. Bringing in and harboring illegal aliens is a criminal act clearly spelled out in § 1324
Why hasn't anyone on this Senate Committee called him out or even gone as far as charging Johnson with a crime? Yes we have a broken immigration system... but it was broken by those in power. Worst off we have US Senators who clearly do not know the law to realize Johnson's refusal to enforce immigration law is a crime in itself.
This is the problem with big govt America. There are so many laws these twits running the country don't even realize which way is up!
"Be careful", that's it, that's all DHS Sec Jeh Johnson has to say about a potential attack in the US. With the threat against the Mall of America by al Shabaab...
...isn't it about time to rethink if we need gun free zones? Whether it is mass killers or terrorists have you noticed they tend to strike at places designed gun free zones?!
Do we have to see a repeat of the Kenyan Westgate mall attack on US soil for people to wake up? Don't expect liberals to have a change of heart on gun laws who have fallen victim or could be victims; they wholeheartedly do not want people to have the ability to defend themselves. As a matter of fact they use mass killings and terror attacks as examples why we need more gun laws! Bring up illegal gun running into the US from both borders and liberals will attack you being a bigot hating on those poor undocumented immigrants just trying to better themselves! Yes, libs are certifiably insane but that is what they will do or blame the drug war and of course Bush.
This threat whether credible or not should be a wake up call that people have a God-given/ natural right to protect themselves. What person or organization has the right to tell any of us we do not have the right to arm and protect ourselves, family and protection. The Founding Fathers figured it out 230+ years ago, they couldn't have been any more clear with how simple they wrote the Second Amendment. It means what it says "right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed". You have a right to be armed and no authority or govt can infringe on that right. There is also nothing in the Second Amendment saying your right to bear arms only applies to your home.
The police, DHS, military are not... ARE NOT first responders in a time of crisis, we the people are. The police and feds are second responders they come after SHTF. States where it is legal to carry and citizens are not put through the regulatory meat grinder have low crime rates, you never hear about terror threats or lone wolf attacks happening in placing where citizens are allowed to carry weapons. (The monster in Moore OK was shot by a reserve deputy sheriff so libs don't even try to suggest it was a civilian). Disarming Americans as this world gets more dangerous by the day is irresponsible and a dereliction of duty by elected leaders.
Maybe we need a terror attack in a gun free zone and then have victims sue the property owners, town/city and state to get the hint? Unfortunately 99% of the time we have to have bad things happen with massive expensive lawsuits to follow for change to occur. Worst off many times when that happens libs get their way with more regs and restrictive laws. Maybe that is exactly what you need though America a good swift kick in the ass and then the libs come in to take more rights away for you to learn your lesson!
America is in danger as the southern border remains unsecured no thanks to the DC destroyers doing nothing to stop illegals entering the US. Frankly they have no intentions because they see illegals as new voters to replace citizens who on both sides of the aisle are waking up to the corruption and double-talk. You would think DHS secretary would do his job to protect the homeland but Jeh Johnson is a politician. He has no intentions of ever enforcing our immigration laws to stop illegals from entering, instead he advances obama's radical agenda.
Something that should be alarming to every American though is the northern border. As Lynch points out there is no security across the 4,000 mile northern border where there are more terror cells active in Canada than in Mexico!
We will see another large scale 9/11 style attack on the US but it won't be with planes or bombs. Terrorists aren't stupid, they're constantly studying the US and already know best way to hit us is by striking at our infrastructure. The Sony hack shows any business can be infiltrated, there is nothing stopping terrorists from hitting power grid, water or natural gas systems. Don't forget wayyyy back on April 16th 2013 a San Jose, CA sub-power station was hit with sniper fire and no one has ever taken responsibility for it. That boys and girls was a test run to show how easy it is for our enemies to shut the US down. A few well placed shots with high powered rifles in a coordinated attack in the middle of the night while the nation is asleep is all that needs to be done. Getting the grid back up and running could take 6-18 mos if it were taken down. Why? The US no longer manufactures the transformers & components needed. The US will have to wait for said parts to come from Germany and South Korea who aren't sitting on the inventory as they are built to order!
The next time you hear politicians ranting the border is safe keep all of this in mind.The $40m spent on border security where there is a hole big enough for trucks to drive through. When you hear all the talk about the southern border being "secure" remember there is a northern border completely unchecked. And don't forget to this day no one has ever taken credit for the San Jose power station attack.
Megyn Kelly continues to rail against obama's lies over his illegal authority to grant amnesty to over 5 million illegal aliens and misleading the nation on obamacare. Darth Hussein said 25 times he did not have the legal authority to grant amnesty. He has been caught an estimated 36 times lying about obamacare. This monster occupying the Peoples House is a pathological liar who has been given a pass by the crap media puppets like George Stephanopulos.
Judge Napolitano weighed in making it clear there is nothing in the Constitution that grants POTUS the legal authority to make or change laws.
"He [obama] does not have the authority to change and rewrite a law."
The power to legislate is reserved for the Legislative Branch aka our inept Congress. Sadly we do not have a competent Congress to keep this self appointed emperor in line. Frankly under Article II & III the president is more of a puppet for Congress than a leader. Presidential power is limited to cabinet, judicial and other officer appointments, sign laws & treaties, grant pardons, command the military and deliver the State of the Union. Obama knows this but has stretched those limited powers into uncharted waters no thanks to our inept Congress. This has set precedent that he can lie and manipulate his way to a true dictatorship.
The Judge torched the emperor stating he "does not have an adult relationship with the truth. The president lies about whether or not he lied in the past." His lies and deceit only add to the level of distrust and division in the US. Kelly and Napolitano both agree he should just come clean and own up but that will never happen. Obama has never admitted fault with anything he has misled the nation on. He knows exactly what he is doing, this is all part of his promise to fundamentally transform the USA.
Sen Sessions hammered DHS Sec Jeh Johnson over the rush of illegals at southern border, calling him out for not enforcing the law or taking any action to stop illegal immigration. Sessions highlights several stories from news media in Central America about the lax obama/US immigration policy, telling people to come here with their kids because they won't be sent back!
It is utterly insulting to hear Johnson give an empty pledge, when challenged by Sessions, to enforce the immigration laws and send people back who come to the US illegally. He states he has done it many times but if that were true then why are thousands coming across the border each day?
People the nation is under a full-fledged invasion by illegals sanctioned by the president of the US, with Atty Gen Holder offering legal assistance. This is all a manufactured crisis to push immigration reform down our throats because "something has to be done".
DO NOT ASSUME AMNESTY IS DEAD WITH ERIC CANTOR'S PRIMARY LOSS!
Reid, Schumer, Gutierrez, Ryan and countless progressives will push for amnesty regardless of public sentiment. They need these illegals to create a need voter pool for them to tap and stay in power. The do not care about the social & economic impact 20 million illegals will have on the US. If they do not get their amnesty bill obama will act unilaterally illegally and grant amnesty!
Forget all that this one fact alone should tell you how much they don't care. The govt is jumping to lend aid to all these "refugees" in the form of legal, medical, education, housing etc. Feds are also asking for $2 billion to cover the expenses but dig it they won't offer the same aid/ care to our vets! Let that stew for a minute....
That said there is no doubt DC couldn't careless about the American people! They want illegals in the US to offer them amnesty, legalize them so they can vote which will officially create one party rule!
The only thing the immigration system needs do is have the laws already on the books enforced. National security trumps respect of human dignity, civil rights of illegals and their family unit. Anchor babies were never the true intention of the 14th Amendment and it has been exploited, perverted and abused for decades. I'm curious why aren't any of the bleeding heart liberals crying over the families broken apart daily in the US when a parent(s) goes to jail? Is that not the system breaking family up? How about the Pelletier family being broken apart when Boston DCF took Justina away to be a lab rat?! Where are the cries of destroying the family unit in these types of cases?
As usual only when it comes to illegal alien amnesty, aka future democrat voters, will the left come out and make it a civil rights/ humane issue. The deportation numbers are being fixed by this administration to gin up support from radicals to pressure Congress to act. Haven't the people learned their lesson yet that facts and figures coming from the obama regime are flat-out lies!? The immigration system is broken, but it was broken by Congress and those tasked to enforce it! Our biggest problem on the border right now is that someone deported today will come right back across it the next day. The only bill the people want to see coming out of Congress is a border security bill. Anything else attached to it i.e. "comprehensive immigration reform" will be nothing but another monstrous disaster like obamacare.
We cannot trust obama to follow the law of the land in obamacare what makes ANYONE think he will abide by whatever immigration bill is cooked up by Congress??
Jeh Johnson is another example as to why the US Senate must be cleaned out starting with Harry Reid. We have them to thank for this political activist now the head of the SS DHS. Border security is the least of his concerns, allowing as many illegals into the country who can be used as political puppets is his directive!
