Your “Homeland Security” $$$s @ Work: Is It Just Me . . .
By Debbie Schlussel
. . . Or is there something seriously wrong with the fact that the Department of Homeland Security just announced an increase of millions of dollars in grants for “anti-terror programs” to illegal alien “sanctuary cities” New York, Houston, and San Francisco?
Um, the number one “anti-terror program” is the enforcement of immigration laws, the violation of which is how any number of Islamic terrorists get into and remain in this country.
If we truly meant business–and we truly do NOT–we would tell these cities that if you remain a sanctuary city, you don’t get the Homeland Security money.
Since most of the millions in DHS grants the cities get is pork money that doesn’t go to counter-terror measures and enforcement, anyway, it would not endanger those cities. And since the money goes to pork and BS expenditures, you can bet that the withholding of millions of these funds would lead to a whole lot less cities declaring themselves sanctuaries for illegal aliens.
Not only should these cities NOT get increases in Homeland Security money, they shouldn’t get ANY of the money at all.
But that’s not the way the fraudulently-named Department of Homeland Security works. It’s not about our homeland and it’s not about security.
It’s about the five “P”s: Politics, Pandering, PC, and the Peter Principle. Period.
The Serpenthead (Michael Chertoff) continues his slither.
I totally agree: no compliance, no money.
