Coast Guard is under the DHS. We need someone with military experience, just like DoD
Look at who has been the head of DHS previously. Ridge, Chertoff, Napolitano, Beers, and Johnson. All of them amnesty supporters.
Everyone needs to understand what talk is around. The Coast guard will be the "other wall" that is the West coast, Gulf coast, East coast. Don't think for a second that a physical wall along the Mexican border (phase one) is going to stop the flow from squirting around the edges. USCG, phase two.
