The primary mission of DHS is to prevent terrorist attacks on our nation. The document on right-wing extremism sent last week by this department’s Office of Intelligence and Analysis is one in an ongoing series of assessments to provide situational awareness to state, local and tribal law enforcement agencies on the phenomenon and trends of violent radicalization in the United States. I was briefed on the general topic, which is one that struck a nerve as someone personally involved in the Timothy McVeigh prosecution.
Let me be very clear: we monitor the risks of violent extremism taking root here in the United States. We don’t have the luxury of focusing our efforts on one group; we must protect the country from terrorism whether foreign or homegrown, and regardless of the ideology that motivates its violence.
We are on the lookout for criminal and terrorist activity but we do not – nor will we ever – monitor ideology or political beliefs. We take seriously our responsibility to protect the civil rights and liberties of the American people, including subjecting our activities to rigorous oversight from numerous internal and external sources.
I am aware of the letter from American Legion National Commander Rehbein, and my staff has already contacted him to set up a meeting next week once I return from travel. I will tell him face-to-face that we honor veterans at DHS and employ thousands across the department, up to and including the Deputy Secretary.
As the department responsible for protecting the homeland, DHS will continue to work with its state and local partners to prevent and protect against the potential threat to the United States associated with any rise in violent extremist activity. ###

This is what happens when you let progressives run anything.
>> Illegal, inappropriate and unethical means to gain admission <<
Isn’t California a sanctuary state? UC Berkeley should welcome these illegals.
On March 17, 2015, at a UC regents meeting at which Napolitano was present, 30 students began to protest higher tuition fees. In response to the protest, Napolitano was heard saying to UC regent Chairman Bruce Varner on the UC video stream of the meeting "Let's go, we don't have to listen to this crap".

If they want admissions to be fair, they wouldn’t admit students to fill racial/ethnic quotas.
I just figured it out!
These high-priced institution is for teaching the kids communism have put them all into debt so in reality it’s their fault that all these kids think that their socialists
So here comes the Hollywood people paying lots of money so that their sweet little darlings could just get into the schools like that some lofty goal
Who cares about these stupid places they charge $80,000 now?
You can learn more just with a computer or auditing classes for free
This is a complete threat to these people
Thus you get this propaganda from the media that oh it’s such a privilege to get into the schools!
that people are willing to break the law and give them thousands of dollars ! and put fake pictures of them playing sports!
Oh don’t we wish like we could be like those Hollywood people and get our children into those schools!
that we are supposed to think
Don’t buy it
off I’m an engineer and I could learn everything I learned in both undergrad and graduate school all by myself now in about a year
Clearly the most valuable thing if you go to graduate school is to write a thesis
a real paper that’s hundreds of pages with dozens and dozens of reference is a Books that you actually read
It kills me that anybody is surprised by rich people buying influence, buying their kids into colleges that they’re too dumb to get into legitimately, buying their grades once they’re in, and buying themselves and their kids out of jail when they have a big night and go too far.
Noticing Lori’s and Felicity’s husbands are never mentioned.
“Obama’s US Dept of Homeland Security Secy Janet Napolitano...”
Beaten any conservatives on your campus this past weekend Janet?

It took me a while to understand the economics of this, now I think I do.
In the old days, rich people had to donate serious money to get their kids into elite schools (I’m guessing high single digit millions in today’s money).
This SAT test fakery / bogus sports resume does it for a lot less dough.
“University of California President Janet Napolitano”
the former az gov? she was useless on the important issues in az and now she’s been useless to know the important things going on at the university she is supposed to be president of? I’m sure she’s got all kinds of money she collects from being incompetetnt in such important jobs.
