A former top Border Patrol official was tapped Saturday to be the acting chief of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Ronald D. Vitiello takes over from Thomas D. Homan, who had been the acting chief since the start of the Trump administration.

Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen announced the move, calling Mr. Vitiello a “well-respected career law enforcement officer” and promised he would be a good advocate for agents and officers.

Shrieks and gibbers from the fever swamps of the lunatic Left.

Maybe ICE will now be able to find an illegal in a Mexican protest parade.

You can abolish ICE if we can abolish the IRS.

Deal?

I would suggest a better deal would be to abolish ICE and replace it with FIRE

Federal Immigration Reduction Entity

Once again leave it to the Italians to get the job done.

I guarantee you he is not about to sit there and take the vitriol from the left.

"Mr. Homan had been performing the duties and had even been nominated for the post, but the nomination stalled in the Senate."

OK

So apparently Homan had a fatal weakness that Vitiello doesn't.

DECIMATE THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How come we can't have a permanent chief? Acting Chief Thomas D. Homan is being replaced by Acting Chief Ronald D. Vitiello? What's the problem?

I don’t know if Homan had weakness or whether it has been due to the vindictive obstructionist RAT senators, I suspect the latter.

Everything I’ve read about Homan is that he’s done a good job.

As long as Trump keeps playing by the ENEMIES RULES, we will have nonsense like this.

This is getting old.

Last time I checked, SHRILLARY! was still walking around free as a bird.

TRUMP needs to make a move, and soon.

Hillry is the democrats problem.. Just who do you propose lock her up? Right now, Hillry looks like she just walked out the back door of some mental hospital... course she did stop by a fabric shop to bundle up first.
