I’m sure everyone recalls Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano — Big Sis — saying that the border is secure, and that border security is better than ever. A rather declarative sentence, really.
Exclusive: Illegal Border Crossings Double, Border Becomes Less Secure as Beltway Gets Close to Deal on Immigration Reform
Katie Pavlich
News Editor, Townhall
As the immigration reform Gang of Eight inside the Beltway prepares to announce a deal later this week, claiming border security will come before a path to citizenship for millions of illegals, Border Patrol agents have seen illegal border crossings double and warn the cutting of agent work hours will only result in less border security, not more.
“We’ve seen the number of illegal aliens double, maybe even triple since amnesty talk started happening,” an agent told Townhall, who asked to remain unnamed due to fears of retaliation within Customs and Border Protection [CBP], something he said is common. “A lot of these people, although not the majority, are criminals or aggravated felons. This is a direct danger to our communities.”
Imagine that! You even begin to speak about amnesty and crossings double! Who would ever have thought that the remotest of possibilities?
In response she now says:
Janet Napolitano: We shouldn’t wait until the border is secure to legalize illegals

No worries. She says the border’s already “as secure as it’s ever been,” even though her department has given up trying to measure that. Marco Rubio recently claimed that 10 million new illegals would cross the border over the next decade if there’s no new guest-worker program in place. Maybe Napolitano could quantify border control that way. Are things secure enough now to ensure that only nine million of them would make it? Eight million?
“I think that once people really look at the whole system and how it works, relying on one thing as a so-called ‘trigger’ is not the way to go,” she said at a Christian Science Monitor event. “There needs to be some kind of certainty in the bill so that people can know when they can legalize and then when the pathway to citizenship, earned citizenship, will open up.”
Says she.
So, to Janet Napolitano: were you lying then, or are you lying now? Because you are lying to the American public.

I got a really good laugh watching the illegal Mexican climbing the fence when Schumer and McCain were standing there!
Yes, frankly, I enjoyed the hell outta that.
Oooops!
BZ
She has lied a lot in the past so this is nothing new. She is also not a “hands on” HSS as she often doesn’t know the answers when questioned. We are leaderless at all levels!
She’s a lesbian puppet for Leftists, no more than that. Obama creates flatus and she parrots his scent.
BZ
She is proof women can be as incompetent as men in high public office.
Nicely done!
BZ
When it will be the time,,,tell me,,, to oust this lesbian liar in charge of Home land Security.
I am positive she could NOT pass the security clearance that she is in charge of!!!!
A travesty of the highest order.
Big Sis my ass. only a poser!
That was the same thing with the Clinton Administration. Ron Kessler wrote about that in his book INSIDE THE WHITE HOUSE. Most of the persons appointed by the Clintons were not even VETTED by the FBI. The Clintons PURPOSELY made sure many persons were kept apart from FBI background checks.
