Breaking: Trump is pushing out Kevin McAleenan, his acting Homeland Security secretary. McAleenan leaves the department in turmoil, at war with the White House and itself over the Trump administration’s aggressive drive to restrict immigration.

President Trump is pushing out Kevin McAleenan, his acting Homeland Security secretary, making the lawyer and former Obama administration official the latest target in a long purge of leadership from the U.S. government’s third-largest department.

Despite withstanding months of public sniping from the administration and clear policy disagreements with the president, McAleenan also proved an effective implementer of some of Trump’s most extreme crackdown efforts at the border. A Border Patrol agent who asked not to be identified because he was not authorized to speak publicly said morale has suffered as the department struggles to respond to the surge on the border this year. He did not fault McAleenan.

McAleenan’s department has also reassigned Customs and Border Protection officers who support and screen, and sent the officers to support Border Patrol on the southern border.

Another 'can't miss' night of the Rachel maddow show I guess. Wow!

Will be so interesting, and it IS imminent, White House will be devoid of Staff, Cabinet will be empty, State Department will be populated by Whistling career staffers, and Trump will be raging, all alone, at FOX on TV. Reality TV at its best. 😈

some other acting Homeland sec will shoot them in the legs

Courts: HA! HA! No emergency. No wall. Trumpnugget: Wa! Wa! Fire someone.

In other words at odds with an aggressive drive to preserve security. We don’t have an immogration problem we have an illegal immigration problem
