Kirstjen Nielsen has joined the White House exit list
Kirstjen Nielsen was ‘no doubt’ forced out as Homeland Security secretary Reported by Nikki Schwab in the New York Post
Bill Kristol @BillKristol posted on Twitter - "Two words you won't find in Kirstjen Nielsen's resignation letter: Donald Trump. Nielsen writes, 'It has been my great honor to lead the men and women of the Department as its sixth Secretary'. She does not say it was an honor to have served President Trump"
WASHINGTON – Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen was forced out of the position, according to multiple news reports.
Bloomberg reported that the president met with Nielsen early Sunday evening and asked her to resign.
One former White House official told The Post that she was “no doubt” pushed out of the job, which she’s held since December 2017.
The president has become increasingly angry over the number of migrants from central American countries coming over the US’s southern border, with many of them trying to apply for asylum in the United States.
Trump’s frustrations were placed on Nielsen’s head, the Washington Post reported.
Trump had already indicated that he was looking for “tougher” individuals to handle immigration. Last week, the president abruptly yanked the nomination of Ronald Vitiello, who was to lead Immigration and Custom Enforcement. “We want to go in a tougher direction,” Trump said.
Maine Writer- reality fear is that the incompetent Donald Trump will be appointing another ghoul to his "acting" administration. Scary.

Nielsen hadn’t been told of the president’s decision, nor did she agree with it.
Knowing she was on thin ice Sunday, Nielsen went into the White House meeting thinking she might be fired, the Associated Press reported.
On Sunday night, after tweeting that Nielsen “will be leaving her position” Trump again went on (another evil!) Twitter rant over the migrant flows.
“Mexico must apprehend all illegals and not let them make the long march up to the United States, or we will have no other choice than to Close the Border and/or institute Tariffs,” Trump wrote. “Our Country is FULL!”
