    "We will tell people who come to the border they need to come back," Nielsen said. "We are not turning them away." Um...

        Since you're closing the ports of entry, then you're charging every person that crossed illegally because you made it impossible to cross legally, how can you say you have no fault in this @SecNielsen? How can it be on democrats when the entire democratic caucus has a bill ready?

        Her inability to forsee the number of employees needed shows she lacks qualifications for the job and well as a human. Resign @SecNielsen

        What "LAW"? @SecNielsen Site the specific law and the "loopholes". There are too many loopholes in your prepared statement. Then...you just walk away. Seriously? Let us be clear, @SecNielsen you are either not in touch with how these centers are run, or you have sold your soul.

        ASYLUM seekers are FLEEING from danger, that’s why they seek ASYLUM. That’s like the Fire Dept telling a caller reporting a fire in their home to call at a more convenient time.

        Doublespeak. “We don’t have the resources” is also a very convenient way to turn people away.

        Catch 22? They are actually setting these people up for committing a crime, arrest them, taking their children away, then overwhelmed courts prosecute the adults en mass. Profiting private prisons, detention centers. Who is overseeing HUMAN RIGHTS? What companies are profiting?

        The picture of Nielsen prior to this press conference was of a Secretary under pressure from the President. Now, she is a true believer - loves the coolaid. Shame on her.
