The legislature controls the spending of the DHS. Outrage from our elected representatives over what the DHS purchases and what it may be used for and whom it will be used against is the sworn job of the legislators.

Co-equal branches with checks and balances has not been replaced by two HMNIC's. (Head marxist n.....as in charge)

I guess those spending bills had to be passed to find out what was in them too.

And that $50,000,000 spent on TSA uniforms on the eve of sequestration had to originate in legislative budget authority as well.

I have to pay each week for my work uniform rental. I suggest legislation coming up enjoy an amendment or rider which requires TSA workers pay the $12 per week for the rental of our $50,000,000 worth of uniforms. They are our property not theirs. If they don't like it, go work in the private sector.
