DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson, What Difference Does it Make

Senator Ted Cruz questioned DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson on allegations that the federal government has scrubbed any mention of Islam, jihad, etc., from intelligence documents/reports.

Secretary Johnson's response is, in summary, 'what difference does it make.'

Its a shame that the folks that begged for this type of hope and change cant even taste their own kool-aid.

I've mentioned this story before but I am not sure if it was in here:

A few years back SOCOM flew him down to a conference. he comes in to give a talk on the cutting-edge issues on the war on terror. He spends ten minutes talking about a french-fry case he handled as a young attorney out of law school, takes a bow and then walks off.

We're all like: "WTF.....?!!??"

The man is an incompetent buffoon. Placed well above his capacity merely by the color of his skin.

I wanted to see the whole thing, so I dug around a little and found a video of the whole session along with a time marked transcript here.

Anything of interest, or more revealing in the 2 1/2 hour video?

Ding, ding, ding, we have a winner. I had to deal with him when he was the GC in the Pentupgone (sp on purpose).

I agree with Robert Spencer, it is time to jettison the countering violent extremism charade.


It’s time to ditch the entire “Countering Violent Extremism” strategy
