Department of Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson testified on Capitol Hill today about a series of ongoing immigration, illegal immigration and security issues. When asked about whether the Obama administration had reached out to the family of Kate Steinle, the 32-year-old woman who was killed in San Francisco two weeks ago by an illegal alien who had been deported five times, Johnson had no idea who she was.
"Has the administration reached out to the Steinle family, to your knowledge?" Rep. Steve Chabot asked Johnson.
"To who?" Johnson replied.
"To the family of the woman who brutally murdered by this individual who had committed seven different felonies in four different states and to my understanding had been deported, kept coming back, has the administration reached out to that family?" Chabot asked again.
"I'm sorry, I don't know the answer to that question sir," Johnson said.
The answer is no, not a single person in the Obama administration has reached out to the Steinle family and it's a disgrace. Jeh Johnson and President Obama should watch a few interviews of Steinle's family talking about Kate's death and show some respect.
"I wish someone would reach out to us," Brad Steinle said during an interview on The Kelly File last night.
When the White House was asked last week to comment on the Kate Steinle case, Press Secretary Josh Earnest said comment on "this specific case" could not be issued and that reporters should refer to DHS for information. It turns out the guy who leads DHS has no clue about who Kate Steinle is. Again, a disgrace. (H/T JazzShaw)

“Has the administration reached out to the Steinle family, to your knowledge?” Rep. Steve Chabot asked Johnson.
“To who?” Johnson replied.
UNBELIEVABLE!
If she was black.....
‘You can call me Jeh, you can call me Jay, you can call me Mr. Johnson.’
I wonder how he wants that to be pronounced?
How about Jackass, Ninnyhammer, leftistwacko, Obama butt-buddy?
I would have asked after the first “who”:
To the family of Kate Steinle, from San Fransico?
Draw the dweep out a bit more and then hang him. (BTW - I meant hanging in a figurative manner. Although what these clowns are doing might be considered Treason.)
Sadly, with this bunch, it’s entirely believable as there’s no political hay to be made.
at the end of the hearing today he called Kate “that woman/the woman in San Francisco’ but knew the name of “Mr Sanchez” the illegal alien who murdered Kate Steinle..
sickening...
She be white.
That image is disgusting.
Hey he’s an Ivy League attorney.
All that is needed for credential in DC.
#WhiteLivesDontMatter
Has MSNBC, Huffington Post, NY Times etc been covering this story? If not then Jeh pronounced JAY has no clue about it. He is part of the liberal bubble and has no knowledge of the world outside that bubble.
“UNBELIEVABLE!”
Believable. Unless you watch Fox News, it was a non event.
If only Kate had been a Muslim....
He knew perfectly well who the Steinles are. He’s just playing dumb in order to avoid questions of responsibility.
Clueless.. At the helm of this nation’s security.
Sad. Dang near apocalyptic imho
