        Thompson says info Nielsen submitted to Congress today reflects ‘misinformation and outright lies’ used to justify the ‘boondoggle border wall, defend the govt shutdown, and distract the American people from a border policy so flawed that children have died’ in DHS’s custody

        Nielsen joins Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross as one of the initial targets of House Dems’ new oversight capabilities. Democrats leading House Cmte on Oversight allege Ross gave misleading testimony to Congress about a decision to add a question about citizenship to 2020 Census

        Kirsten Nielsen is as close to an outright and obvious fascist as we have ever had in the U.S. gov't. I look forward to her grilling.

        I bet the documents, memos, contracts etc.. on construction of the border wall are maybe 2 or 3 pages at most, I doubt any bids have been asked for, locations have not been selected. Also, how is it Trump had 1.3 Billion and only used 6%? What am I missing?
