House chairman blasts Nielsen's tenure as a 'disaster from the start'
House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) on Sunday called Kirstjen Nielsen's tenure as Homeland Security secretary a "disaster," moments after President Trump announced she was leaving her post.
"Hampered by misstep after misstep, Nielsen's tenure at the Department of Homeland Security [DHS] was a disaster from the start," Thompson said in a statement. "It is clearer now than ever that the Trump Administration's border security and immigration policies - that she enacted and helped craft - have been an abysmal failure and have helped create the humanitarian crisis at the border."
"It is truly unfortunate that Nielsen refused to take responsibility for her actions and was simply unable to lead and stand up to the President for his misguided, wall obsessed anti-immigrant agenda," he continued.
Trump on Sunday abruptly announced via Twitter that Nielsen was leaving her position as the top official at Homeland Security. Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Kevin McAleenan is set to replace Nielsen as acting DHS secretary, Trump said.
