#9/11 🇺🇸 It’s Been 25 Years Since 9/11. What Has DHS Become? “A department that originally was created to look externally, identifying threats and stopping plots before they could enter the U.S., has instead become increasingly focused on policing U.S. residents.” www.politico.com/news/magazin...

Look at this loathsome repulsive creature yelling at a reporter. In addition to the fact that he’s the worst president in US history, he’s one of the worst human beings on planet earth. His supporters have a very serious defect in their character.
