But..but....the Tea Party Terrorists have to be kept in check!/s
DHS was created for the right reasons, but is run by wrong people. That has happened a lot in past two decades, and in past Administrations as well.
The lack of information sharing among police, state bureaus of investiagion, FBI, ATF, DEA arm of FBI, CIA, and others allowed crimes to go unsolved. The DHS was to bring those agencies together to share tips and information after it was found sharing might have stopped 9/11.
Everyone having a piece of the puzzle but no one putting the pieces together! Some decisions were wrong, like putting FEMA under that umbrella. Like the left making it their punishment for Tea Party members or other conservative groups.
The concept was good, but the use of it has been bad.
