Big Sis Napolitano Wins Fear Factor

Janet Napolitano just won this year’s Fear Factor.  Sequestration isn’t truly a budget cut; it’s a reduction in the rate of growth.  This woman would have us believe that they can’t function on a budget.  What in the hell am I talking about?  They don’t have a budget!

What I really found laughable is her assertion that the Obama administration is enforcing our immigration laws.  Hell, they’re doing everything they can not to crack down on illegal aliens.  The only way they can get deported is if they’ve committed a felony.  You’d think that violating our sovereignty and  laws is a crime.  Welcome to America.  Don’t forget to wipe your feet on the American people.

And to add emphasis on how skeletal the Department of Homeland Security is, they’re releasing illegals from jails all around the country, instead of deporting them.

A week before mandatory budget cuts go into effect across the government, the Department of Homeland Security has started releasing illegal immigrants being held in immigration jails across the country, Immigration and Customs Enforcement said Tuesday.

Gillian Christensen, an ICE spokeswoman, said ICE has reviewed "several hundred cases" of immigrants being held in jails around the country and released them in the last week. They have been "placed on an appropriate, more cost-effective form of supervised release," she said.

Christensen said the agency's "priority for detention remains on serious criminal offenders and other individuals who pose a significant threat to public safety." She did not say how released immigrants were selected or what jails they were released from.

Tuesday's announcement of jail releases is the first tangible impact of the looming budget cuts for DHS.

The Obama administration has been issuing dire warnings about the impact of the sequestration and DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano told reporters at the White House Monday that across-the-board cuts would impact the department's core operations, including border security and airport screening operations.

She also warned that DHS might not be able to afford to keep the 34,000 immigration jail beds mandated by Congress. On average last week, there were 30,773 people being held in ICE jails.

"I don't think we can maintain the same level of security at all places around the country with sequester as without sequester," said Napolitano, adding that the impact would be "'like a rolling ball. It will keep growing."

In the meantime, DHS has enough money to stockpile billions of rounds of ammo to use against the citizens of this country when this governments reckless spending turns us into Greece.  Homeland Security my ass.
