Discussion: DHS Secretary Takes Blame For Chaotic Rollout Of Immigration Order

He is being a good soldier. I know this crap. I was drafted in 1969 and was a victim of it. He can go to hell.

Why is Kelly prostrating himself like this? He’s got to know that this won’t be the last time any of Rump’s “rollouts” reach shambolic level. Any sort of loyalty to Rump is completely misguided. Why defend the indefensible?

This is what falling on your sword looks like. You can watch MSNBC right now to following the appeal hearing, people who know about these things are predicting the trumpees will lose their appeal because they made their religious hatred plain early on.

Great sword seppuku. Apparent reality:

“They were in charge of this operation,” one senior DHS official said, adding that the experts were “almost immediately overruled by the White House, which means by Bannon and Miller.”

“DHS officials say there was little or no White House consultation with immigration, customs and border security agencies on the immigration policy change, causing widespread confusion over how to implement Trump’s order.”

Suck on those tiny Trump balls, baby. Heaven knows he shouldn’t take responsibility for anything in his fucking life.
OT, but still worth mentioning for shits and giggles. There’s a rumor on the Net that Trump wants to can Sean Spicer due to his bad performance, as though anyone could ever handle a job like that.
Well, actually, there is ONE viable candidate:

I think it would be more appropriate to use the word ***“prostating”***, considering what Trump is doing to him.

Remember when the Obama administration DID NOT sell fear?
UNDERSTAND WHAT THE FUCKNG MORON IS NOW DOING? (Nothing new
Don’t the Bush years feel like a walk in the park?
This bunch of low life gravy sucking pigs are gonna fuck up safety nets, international diplomacy, life as it essentially exists.
That someone may take the Secnd Ammendment into their own hands, while aberrant, is not without the bounds of proprietary.

The honorable thing to do, sir, would be to resign.

Yah, I know, “honor” is one of those librul conceits :facepunch:

Why did they confirm this asshole again? Barely two weeks into his new job and he doesn’t even know what the fuck he’s doing? Sorry, but falling on your sword only goes so far. This is hundred times worse than the roll out of the Obamacare website…but we never fucking heard the end of that bullshit, did we? I expect this jerk and Trump to never live this down or get away with this…seeing how it actually affected real live people and the a dumb website only delayed signups for a short while.

“Well, class, a BPH diagnosis is a definite possibility. Any of you students want to chime in.”

No. The line is “the buck stops here” - this is Don the dope trying to blame anyone but himself.
His incompetence is all on him. Don is an idiot and this is what he does.
All on Don the dope!

Taking a bullet for the team. He didn’t even see it until after it was signed…

On NPR they highlighted a quote from Kelly about the travelers weren’t treated badly, or something to that effect. So useing zip ties on 4 or 5 year olds SOP?

‘Yep, it’s all my fault because Bannon and Trump didn’t bother to let any of us at DHS know about it until it was signed, and then I couldn’t read their minds about what this POS EO was supposed to mean and how far it was supposed to go.’

Nice try, General, but no one who was paying attention is buying it. You’re just the next victim of the Trump humiliation cycle. (I forget what Josh calls it.)

He’s taking blame because Trump and Bannon are too cowardly to do it themselves.
