Kirstjen Nielsens Spokesman Has the Most Hilarious Spin For Her Getting Chased Out of Mexican Restaurantby Aidan McLaughlin | 7:26 am, June 20th, 2018
A group of rowdy protestors heckled Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen out of a Mexican restaurant on Tuesday evening, chanting Shame! and Abolish ICE at the official seen by many as the face of migrant separation.
It came down to the Homeland Security spokesman, Tyler Q. Houlton, to put a spin on the imbroglio that might end the bad headlines, and lordy did he deliver.
While having a work dinner tonight, the Secretary and her staff heard from a small group of protestors who share her concern with our current immigration laws that have created a crisis on our southern border, Houlton wrote in a tweet.

(6,253 posts)2. Why didn't she invite them to sit down?
And share some Americanized guac and chips?

(45,559 posts)3. I'm sure the protesters share her concerns with current immigration laws
and not her callous attitude towards how she has chosen to enforce it and treat people and children in ways that would be unimaginable if it happened to people who look like Kirstjen Nielsen.
