There are many reports floating around about the recent ICE raids. President Trump announced that a large-scale sweep would begin soon, but no details were offered.
Then, The Washington Post wrote about the planned raids, the cities where they would be conducted, and some 2,000 families that were targeted. The club that knew these details was very, very small.
Someone leaked it to the press, and some are pointing fingers at Acting Department of Homeland Security Director Kevin McAleenan. He reportedly did it to sabotage the operation, one that was not well received by former DHS Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen. It cost her her job.
Five sources spoke with Anna Giaritelli of The Washington Examiner. Besides McAleenan being accused of leaking, the DHS secretary was accused of caring more about what liberals and Never Trumpers thought of him than carrying out the duties of the agency. Not good, folks.
For a man who runs an agency tasked with securing our border, he’s donated for years to the one political party that’s made it known that enforcing immigration laws is not a priority: the Democratic Party. The president of the National Border Patrol Council says the acting DHS secretary should be considered anti-Trump. Giaritelli has more (via Washington Examiner):
Acting Homeland Security Secretary Kevin McAleenan, who was accused of sabotaging the Trump administration's deportation operation because of a personal opposition to the plan, has given for years solely to Democratic causes, according to federal records.
Brandon Judd, president of the National Border Patrol Council, wrote in an op-ed Monday that the secretary and his wife's donations only to Democratic politicians and organizations over the past 12 years could explain why McAleenan allegedly leaked a nationwide Immigration and Customs Enforcement raid to the media last week, forcing the administration to cancel the extensive undertaking after months of planning.
"He has proven his political leanings in his actions, including his campaign contributions," Judd wrote in a Fox News op-ed. "By definition, Kevin McAleenan should be considered anti-Trump."
Where do these guys come from? How do they get in these positions?
Who the hell does the vetting?
That’s what I would like to know.
[[[Who the hell does the vetting?]]]
Another Democrat deepstater.
Personally I think this position should be filled by an ex-military type. Retired marine col or 1-star. Type that didn’t get any more advancement because they refused to kiss ass.
Trump’s hiring record is very poor. Whoever is recommending these people to Trump needs to be fired.
I want to know too.
Who ever they are they need to be fired.
We need to expand the crimes that death penalties are allowed.
BINGO!

Trump sure can pick them can’t he?
I think he had better reconsider his human resources recruiter if he has one. If he doesn’t have one he need to get one that is loyal to him and his ideals.
How did he manage to acquire and manage his empire without having good and loyal people working for him?
Time for Trump to dissolve the DHS and fire ALL of the various agency heads as well as the their top tear managers. Then he needs to put Tom Holman in charge of cleaning out the illegals in this country. Under what guise that would be in is irrelevant, just do it.
Must be Valarie Jarrett.
ANOTHER DUPLITICIOUS DEMOCRAT!!! WHO is setting Trump up with these TRAITORS!
Perhaps a test.
Find it’s a weed (poison ivy) then pull it by the roots. How to find your answer? Wait until it blooms. Much easier to delete from the garden and gather all the roots in order it will not appear again.
He’s making staffing decisions like he’s still running a business. He needs to realize that he’s still neck-deep in that swamp that he’s trying to diligently to drain.
President Trump outs another Democrat criminal working in the government.
It’s not Trump’s hiring record, it’s the entrenched career bureaucrats.
Liberals only hire other liberals when they get into management, and the leviathan is so big he cannot possibly know the best man for each position. He just can hope they are there to do their jobs and not politics.
But when you find one, you have to fire their ass FOR CAUSE.
We’re used to silly linear thinking people we don’t know what to make of him. Why so many trump haters on staff.
That’s not the issue. We know two things one- DC is full of corrupt trump haters who cannot come about and operate honestly. Two Trump did not go to DC with a staff. Bush did. Clinton did. Operatives. Trump doesn’t work that way. We expect him to move in like these corrupticans and just do the job. Takes me three years to learn a new job and be an expert. To learn the nuances of the politics by then the nasty gossiping jealous powerful people have gone or been overtaken by new bosses who rely on me
He learns from every weasel that gets off the Trump train.
Still, we need to know who hired this guy. Trump doesn’t do all the hiring He is learning to trust no one in DC. This article is sympathetic to Nielsen but back up. She brought this guy on most likely certainly if trump fired her
Trump an Nielsen went to the border. She was following Trump around on his interviews with the border enforcement guys - people
Nielsen was gone the next day along with her deputy
Wall was funded and has been being built since
Trump keeps his enemies close as a learning experience
