DHS Secretary: It’s my job to “give voice to Muslims”

Department of Homeland Security Chief Jeh Johnson has been sipping… no chugging the Kool-Aid at the drink stand of  Barack Obama. And that he is in ANY position of leadership in the government is mind-boggling. But then, the same can be said for every member of Obama’s cabinet including the head cheese himself. In a speech during the recent “Combating Violent Extremism” summit, he was videotaped saying that his job is to “give voice to Muslims.”

DHS secretary Jeh Johnson

No, Mr. Johnson, your job is NOT to give a voice to the ‘poor, downtrodden’ Muslims. Your “job” is to protect the ALL of the American people and secure our borders. Your job, Mr. Secretary is to SECURE America.

Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?

From the DHS website:

The Core Missions

There are five homeland security missions:

Prevent terrorism and enhancing security;

Secure and manage our borders;

Enforce and administer our immigration laws;

Safeguard and secure cyberspace;

Ensure resilience to disasters;

Secure. Enforce. Safeguard. The words echo across an America that no longer seeks to protect its citizens and has turned on us in favor of strangers.

The Department of Homeland Security was created under President Bush after the 9-11 attacks. It was designed to coordinate efforts between the different Federal agencies in an effort to protect America from the terrorism that had come to our shores. But that mission has drastically changed under a President whose focus is anything but security.

The “change” 
It’s a fundamental shift since Barack Obama took office: away from the protection of ordinary Americans to promotion of Muslim interests. As one of Uncle Sam’s writers recently observed, Muslims are “victims” in the mind of this president, and obviously also in the minds of the heads of the Federal agencies.
The DHS, as well as the Patriot Act have served over the last 14 years as a demise to our freedoms in ways we could not have fathomed at the time. The entire focus of the DHS has gone completely awry. The full speech of Mr. Johnson is available at this link – keep in mind the lens through which he speaks and hear the exact words. It is just enough off kilter that it can be take in many different ways.
