    Wow. She has literally never even met with a single DACA recipient. What an astonishing admission. The lives of 800,000 young people are hanging in the balance and the Director of Homeland Security has never even met a single dreamer.https://twitter.com/NBCNews/status/953342872866213890 …

        I think part of the reason they are able to make such morally repulsive decisions is that they never have to look the victims of those decisions in the face. And they intend to keep it that way.

        In fairness, if YOU were a DREAMer, would you meet with Trump's Homeland Security Secretary? She'd have you deported on the spot.

        This administration is not humane. They have no interest in America or humanity at large. They only care about lining their pockets and holding their positions. #Neilsen like #Trump needs to go. #ShitholePOTUS

        to be fair she was just sworn in on December 6th and DHS is vast and there are a lot of issues, so meeting DACA recipients isn't a huge priority on her calendar, I don't previous secretaries prioritized these meetings either. They should but they don't

        It's hard for me to separate "normal" reactions to her busy schedule fr disdain fr her comments about Norway et al.

        Did you see how she tried to play it off, by saying not in her capacity as Secretary? But Booker nailed her by pushing.

        With that level of responsibility for human welfare one would think she would seek out at least a few meetings with DACA recipients!!

        I don’t know what the hell you are talking about?! Shaun King wasn’t criticizing Corey Booker and neither was I !! Shaun King was commenting on Kirstjen Nielsons’ lack of knowledge about her job, the people she was ready and willing to hurt! Her lying about what was said!

        Par for the course with this administration. ie. Devos has no experience with public schools or financial aid, judicial nominees with no actual litigation experience, etc.
