Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson said Friday that the next administration could reverse his promises and use the information illegal immigrants have voluntarily turned over to the department as part of a 2012 amnesty to now target them for deportation.

Mr. Johnson, in an interview with Univision, said he hoped the Trump administration wouldn’t take that stance, but the secretary said there are no legal blocks to doing so.

“By its nature, executive action is not legal action, and it can be changed by the next administration,” Mr. Johnson said in the interview, airing Sunday on “Al Punto with Jorge Ramos.”

Trump’s way of handling foreign resistance to repatriation would be to pick up the phone and say, “About that multi million dollar aid package, we’re gonna have to rethink that”.

Good. I hope President Trump kick-out ALL illegal alien invaders.

Univision? The kenyan has obviously sent orders to his minions to go out and stir the pot the last two weeks of his admin.

...... a lawyer friend of mine with State Dept and Federal experience said that by international law, nations have to take their citizens back. Period.There is no "maybe."If those nations do not comply, they can be sued and found guilty in the international courts.......

REALITY CHECK----As of January 2016, the following countries were designated by ICE as "uncooperative" in accepting back their citizens the US wished to return----Third world refugees who committed crimes in the US: Afghanistan, Algeria, Burundi, Cape Verde, China, Cuba, Eritrea, Gambia, Ghana, Guinea, India, Iran, Iraq, Ivory Coast, Liberia, Libya, Mali, Mauritania, Morocco, Sierra Leone, Somalia, South Sudan, and Zimbabwe.

CONNECTING THE DOTS: Hillary aide at the State Dept, Cheryl Mills, runs the BlackIvy Group, a consulting firm that focuses on Sub-Saharan Africa.

Sub-Saharan Africans are pouring into the US---what do Hillary and Mills know about this?

Just Jeb doing his assigned S__T stirring working to cause panic. Trump has repeatedly stated he plans to start with convicted criminals, overstays, and fugitives. That alone would be several year’s work.

That would be true jeh - which is a good reason why, as an executive in government, you should always follow the law. You can't depend on your successor to be as unscrupulous as you are.

The incinerators are running overtime in DC

Wouldn’t you think that would have occurred to them at the time?

Even I could have figured thatone out.

Yep, but bambam was on a roll, he and his lapdogs are not so cock sure now.

They just assumed that, best case, Hillary would get elected to follow Obama, and it would be business as usual. Or worst case, the Republicans would nominate anybody but Trump, and even if the Republican nominee won the general election it would again just be business as usual.

Jorge Ramos thought that he would enter the primary election early and dispense with Trump with his Magnificence. He was wrong.

Thanks for the tip Jeh, now go enjoy your retirement.

Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson, sweating like an illegal alien voting on election day, voiced his concerns that Donald Trump,
the evil President Elect, might actually keep his promises to enforce immigration laws.

keep giving him ideas!

It’s not that simple. Most of the dreamers went through a process where they went back to Mexico, entered with a legal visa, and received their ten-year green card. Of course, many have not finished the process so they would be eligible for deportation.

“By its nature, executive action is not legal action, and it can be changed by the next administration...”

They never saw Trump coming. They thought they were going to have the White Hut into perpetuity.

My bet is that there are going to be so many whistle-blowers crawling out of the woodwork after January 20th that we're going to have to open another wing at Gitmo.
