Exposing Waste and Mismanagement at the Department of Homeland Security
The Daily Signal ^ | 4/25/16 | Rep. Scott Perry

Now more than ten years old, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) no longer can blame its continued program failures, employee misconduct and lingering management challenges on “growing pains.”

Since its inception, DHS has faced significant obstacles, including consolidating 22 pre-existing agencies and reporting to approximately 100 Congressional oversight committees, all while trying to strike a balance between National security and protecting privacy. However, with this country more than $19 trillion in debt, our taxpayers can’t afford to support failing management.

With the Republican party growing, Homeland Security has more people to monitor every day!

I was against Bush creating the DHS in the first place. It made no sense to me. Part of the 9/11 failure was in agencies not communicating with each other. So it seemed counterproductive to create another agency whose mission overlapped with those of the FBI and CIA.

Just last week I went by a power station dam that is protected by DHS. The fence on the dike that leads to the locks on the dam was reinforced with an anchored, heavy gage, anti gate crash wire. However, the wires are not connected in the center! In other words, they were installed, but they are not functional. It has been that way for at least 5 years.

It's time to end the pretense and rename it " Homeland Control".

Even better - just disband it.

Just make it a template. You’ll get more use out of it:

Exposing Waste and Mismanagement at the ____ of _____.

Though, expect to see *MUCH* MORE in the coming (R) Presidency and (or) when the SHTF for the upcoming economy.
