Rep. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.) joined a growing list of Democrats on Sunday night in calling for Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen to resign over her defense of the separation of migrant families.
"This lie is the last straw. I join @KamalaHarris in calling on Secretary Nielsen to resign. It's not just that @SecNielsen has a policy of ripping children away from parents, it's her volume of lies about the new policy," Lieu tweeted.
"Her credibility has been shredded. Nielsen needs to go," he added.

(58,785 posts)because better people wouldn't take the jobs. She's exposing herself for what she is, and, yes, thank goodness that will severely narrow her future career. There're many places for ruthlessly unprincipled types in business, though. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce should love her.
Which reminds me of Rachel Brand, or maybe it's vice versa. Brand resigned from the DoJ when history called her to step up, so possibly smarter than Nielsen. She was a former legal high-up in USCOC dirty work, and I'm guessing what she might have exposed of herself if she'd assumed the responsibilities Rosenstein has might well have been ruinous to her reputation.

(82,849 posts)Ignore people who say it's useless to call for Secretary Nielsen's resignation. What's useless is to allow her horrible comments to stand without a rebuttal. Let's hear this from more Democrats, and if any Republicans can be found who still care about the country, let's hear it from them, too.
