Obama's DHS chief blames Republicans for border crisis


Posted: Jun 13, 2014

THE DC:  WASHINGTON — "Department of Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson today suggested that the GOP is responsible for the  growing border crisis because it has not approved the Senate’s June 2013 immigration rewrite that is backed by President Barack Obama.  He suggested that migrants are now crossing the border while wrongly hoping they will be included in the amnesty that is part of the Senate’s bill.  “There is a lot of anticipation [among potential migrants] about what comprehensive immigration reform would do, but it needs to be clear [to new border-crossers] that if the Congress acts on the pending legislation, the earned path to citizenship is for those who have been in the country now for a year and half, not those who are crossing today,” he said.  The “earned path to citizenship” is the White House’s preferred term for amnesty."

Seriously, I have had enough of this administration's finger pointing.  Now, even more illegal aliens are trying to flood the country in hopes of an easy way to citizenship.  I blame this administration for the horrible mess at the border.   Amnesty is NOT the answer.

It seems that this administration is only good at the finger pointing.

Too bad the head of Homeland Security is being political. This department should be concerned with one thing and one thing only: keeping everyone in this country safe.

From his attitude, it seems like he is bent on following the present agenda to the end.

BTW, he was a TOP FUNDRAISER for Obama in 2008. Could this prestigious appointment be his reward? (Yes, I know he was voted in by Congress, but he was nominated by Obama).

But then I read this:
The Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Jeh Johnson is asking for an internal review of the Obama administration's release of tens of thousands of immigrants in the country illegally who were convicted of crimes and facing deportation. He's telling lawmakers he wants a deeper understanding of the issue......

...In testimony sent to Congress ahead of a hearing by the committee Thursday, Johnson said he was "committed to enforcing our immigration laws in a manner that best promotes and ensures national security, public safety and border security." He said he has asked for a "deeper understanding" of the releases, and he pledged to continue to work with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to ensure public safety.....

...The White House said this week it asked Johnson to delay completing his review of deportation policies until the end of the summer. ...

So, is this guy "faking" the above info in the article, or is he truly and honestly questioning Obama? I guess only time will tell.

I gave you a thumbs-up vote - ProMT

Republicans Mull Response To Obama On ImmigrationNov 15, 2014
WASHINGTON (AP) — House Republicans debated Friday how to respond to President Barack Obama's expected executive action on immigration, with GOP leaders anxious to craft a solution that satisfies the demands of their most conservative members without courting a government shutdown. Another option would be to pass a temporary spending bill into next year when the GOP will control the Senate, to try to see if Republicans can use their grip on the purse strings to gain leverage over the ...
