US Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen resigns after reportedly meeting with Trump amid the administration’s growing frustration over Central American families crossing the southern border
US Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen is seen in a file photo standing next to President Donald Trump in Washington, January 4, 2019.
McAleenan is a longtime border official who is well-respected by members of Congress and within the administration. The decision to name an immigration officer to the post reflects Trump’s priority for a sprawling department founded to combat terrorism following the September 11 attacks. Nielsen traveled to the US-Mexico border on Friday with Trump to participate in a roundtable with border officers and local law enforcement. There she echoed Trump’s comments on the situation at the border, though she ducked out of the room without explanation for some time while Trump spoke. As they toured a section of newly rebuilt barriers, Nielsen was at Trump’s side, introducing him to local officials.
