Buh Bye. Wish We Had A Cage For You

Kirstjen Nielsen, the horrrible Secretary of Homeland Security, was forced to resign from her job earlier today for not being sadistic enough toward immigrants and their children. These tweets sum it up:

Never forget that Kirstjen Nielsen blamed the death of a 7-year-old migrant girl in U.S. custody on her family.

There is a special place in hell for Nielsen.

Stephen Miller and Donald Trump have pushed out DHS Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen — whose resignation letter shows she’s proud of caging children and ripping apart families — for not being a committed enough xenophobe. Truly terrifying.

To those who sacrifice your reputations to Trump like @SecNielsen - you will be remembered for what you did there, not for anything else that preceded selling your soul to this madman. Here, Kirstjen Nielsen, are the topics that will always be what everyone remembers about you. pic.twitter.com/9G1H9Hrogs

.@SecNielsen separated mamas from their babies and locked little children in cages.

I’m not sorry to see her go. I only wish she’d been fired long ago, before she ever had a chance to resign.

I am well past the point of devoting energy to the transitional events in the Trump Admin’s uninterrupted terribleness.

Kirstjen Nielsen was terrible. Her replacement will be terrible.

The terribleness is the thing that matters.

The key moment for @SecNielsen in history’s telling of her tenure will be her standing at a podium, angrily lecturing the press that news of the family separation policy was false, only for Trump to then confirm it was true, and a signed memo later showing she knew so as well.

BONUS:  Trump's fathomless, racist cruelty continues, and he's willing to flout the law to enable it.

EXCLUSIVE from @JuliaEAinsley and me: President Trump has for months now urged his administration to reinstate large-scale separation of migrant families crossing the border, according to three U.S. officials with knowledge of meetings at the White House.
