Kirstjen Nielsen’s Spokesman Has the Most Hilarious Spin For Her Getting Chased Out of Mexican Restaurant

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.

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.
