The Director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention downplayed concerns that the Ebola virus could reach the United States through the southern border this week, but Senate committee staffers are keeping an eye out for such a possibility.

Gubment “Border Guards” can’t even stop Latrino Invaders with obvious infections like scabies.

Rejects from the Fast Food Industry, A.K.A. DHS employees, most certainly won’t spot an Ebola case.

Those things couldn’t even spot the danger posed by the Ebama case - and they had two opportunities!
