sarah huckabee sander's replacement. Sounds like she will continue to be flotus' press secretary (they are running out of horrible people to hire?). I am guessing there isn't much work involved so they can share her...

 

She is getting three jobs (comms director too). I missed that bill shine already left (in March).

 

Acting CBP Chief to Resign amid Backlash over Treatment of Detained Migrants
By JACK CROWE June 25, 2019 12:51 PM

John Sanders, the acting commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection, will resign in the coming weeks as the public outcry over the treatment of detained migrants at the southern border continues to escalate, the New York Times reported Tuesday.

Sanders has served as CBP commissioner since President Trump appointed Kevin McAleenan to serve as acting secretary of homeland security following the departure of Kirstjen Nielsen in April.

News of the resignation comes as harrowing reports of unsanitary conditions at CBP holding facilities continue to emerge.

More than 300 children were removed from a CBP holding facility outside El Paso, Texas on Tuesday after a group of lawyers visiting the facility said children there hadn’t been bathed in days and often went to bed hungry,

Sanders was implementing the policy concocted by Sr. WH Advisor, Stephen Miller, why isn't he fire?
