Turmoil at DHS and State Department - "There Are People Literally Crying in the Office Here"
The Intercept ^ | January 31, 2017 | Alice Speri, Ryan Devereaux

While President Donald Trump’s executive order on immigration has left families wondering when they will see their loved ones again, drawing condemnation from leaders around the globe, the administration’s actions have also impacted another group: career U.S. officials working on asylum and refugee cases as well as foreign policy.

"There are people literally crying in the office here," said a senior U.S. immigration official who spoke to The Intercept on condition of anonymity.

Shut your mouth, or I’ll give you something to cry about! also: "If I have to stop this car, you and your brother".... "

My dad said: "I am not here to entertain you. I am here to put a roof over your head, feed you, and make sure you behave."

On a slow news day it might be fun to compare dad messages.

However, she is quite capable of crushing granite with her cute little brindle jaws. LOL!

Excellent graphic. But make no mistake: The people you’re referring to aren’t liberals — far from it — they’re Leftists, out-of-control Leftists. There is nothing “liberal” about them!

So, a bunch of dyed-in-the-wool commies, who are permanently attached to the carotid artery of the American taxpayers, like blood sucking remoras, are crying because they’re not being allowed to continue flooding our country with third world savages?

Color me heartless.

Another anonymous source. So sick of it.

Why print the words of a coward. Or is this more made up crap?

Where the heck were these people’s tears when we decided to pulverize Syria and Libya by providing violent terrorists with weapons to destroy their countries?

These so called rebels backed by the USA, gleefully behead Christians and other sects - even Muslims who are of a different sect.

And they want to cry because there was a pause in issuing visas to review, enhance, and establish good standards for issuing credentials? Preference to be given to minority religions being persecuted, and to people who harbor no animosity to gays or women-a fact overlooked by the liberal propagandists.

Don’t wait for them to quit - fire everyone who signed the danged memo.

Anyone at DHS or State who cries because they have to follow the law and serve America’s interests is in the wrong line of work.

Did they cry when the 911 hijackers - all here on visas issued by the US State department - killed 3,000 innocents?

They do realize we are going to war - real war - against ISIS soon. Right?

If they are crying, there should be firing.

Print their job descriptions and hand them out and ask them to give a percentage of their time spent on each task every day.

All employees. All.

Do a desk audit of each employee.

They better be doing it on a break or a meal or they are violating the Hatch Act. If they are using government time, they can be terminated.

So here is how the anonymity interview goes after finding A government loser to talk to. “I have been literally crying in my office ever since Trump became POTUS.” Then questioner asks, “are there others who are also this upset?” At which the government loser says, “oh yes, I have seen quite a few crying also.”

Thus, “there are people literally crying in the office here.”
