Yes, right. Kirstjen Nielsen is the incompetent conservative bureaucrat that received the phone calls saying that levees in New Orleans had breached because was supposed to be in charge of arranging and coordinating the emergency response for George Bush the Dumber. She did nothing for days. Her incompetence and ineptitude were directly responsible for the thousands of deaths from Katrina.

We are depending on Kirstjen to save us from this unprecedented war on our democratic institutions and this Russian traitor that is Preshitident?

Remember what happened to Rex when he gave it to Putin? I think Ms. Nielsen got the message loud and clear.

We really have judge this in terms of the President’s response to the hacking of our power (and other?) infrastructure. The way Drumpf mobilized the government’s resources to assist the effected industries’ efforts to rid their control systems of the Russian intrusion is surely a model for how he intends to respond to their alleged interference with our election system. Doubtless, we’ll see a comparable level of action once the problem has been adequately studied and our intelligence services have eliminated the possibility that it was, in fact, the work of a 400 lb. bed sitting on a man in its mother’s basement.

“I do,” she responded.

The President subsequently requested to see the alleged statutes regarding “bigamy.”

She doesnt want to be terminated via Twitter while conducting her morning toilette.

She is lying. Career beltway bandit/apparatchik.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA…yeah Kirstjen, you have ‘support’ right up until Donnie starts tweeting at you!

As long as it’s nothing but TALK, sure, you have his support.

Wait until you actually try to DO SOMETHING, that is when the pressure to stop will begin.

When are we the people going to get the picture of these two pinky swear that Russia did not meddle in out elections?

tomanjeri · March 21, 2018, 2:52pm

Then she can show us what that support is. Certainly Trump outlined what he has done in the past year and what he intends to do going in to the Nov. elections. If she can’t produce that, in writing, then she’s simply lying.

Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen said on Wednesday morning that President Donald Trump has supported her efforts to prepare for and combat future election meddling by Russia.

That’s the problem. When it comes to Russia, we need efforts that Trumpp doesn’t support
